About Jennifer Niceley:
We've known her for a long time, since she was a teenager from Jefferson City playing Knoxville clubs with her band Soulpenny. Now the rest of the world is getting to know Jennifer Niceley on her own terms. Here are some impressions:
From St. Louis' The Riverfront Times (10/17/2007): "If you're still wondering what Billie Joe and his paramour threw off the Tallahatchie Bridge, here's an unexplored theory: It was the unborn blueprint for the music of Jennifer Niceley, a Knoxville-raised, East Nashville-based singer and songwriter with a flair for Southern gothic drama and a torch to bear for all the hearts her after-after-hours croon sends down river."
From No Depression magazine (Jan/Feb 2008): "It might seem premature to call this Nashville singer's first full-length a break-through, but that's very much the way it sounds... Moody, restive, and purposeful, Niceley has made one of the most purely beautiful records of the year."
From New York's Lucid Culture blog's review of Niceley's Rockwood Music Hall performance: "Move over, Eleni Mandell. Make some room, Rachelle Garniez. Neko Case, scooch. Meet the next great noir chanteuse: Jennifer Niceley."
