Becky Schlegel. Singer/Songwriter.

Compact Disc

Dandelion

"This is her fourth solo CD, and I don’t know how I missed her before. Her new album DANDELION is a dandy. She’s a gifted songwriter with a voice that evokes Krauss or Parton and is a charming singer." - CMT.com

"Fans of such singer/songwriters such as Jewel and Dolly will want to take a chance on this." - Country Weekly

"This is the kind of album that feels more like a friend than a purchase. She touches you with all her talents and delivers everything you want a top shelf singer/songwriter to bring. Hot stuff at the top of the organic pile." - Midwest Record

"With a voice that flitters and floats like a wisp on a breeze, her fluttering vocals can hush to a whisper at times and then fly up into a falsetto- sometimes in the same line. The album makes up one of our early favorites of the year. Sounds like Jewel singing Bluegrass." - That Nashville Sound
"Her creativity shines on this venture and, unlike many songwriters, Becky’s vocals are strong enough for her to possibly be her songs’ best interpreter.”- Stacy’s Music Row Report

"Her voice raises goose bumps and its beauty reminds us of a young Dolly Parton. Usually accompanied only by sparse instruments applied BECKY SCHLEGEL sings on her new album recording Dandelion by longing, love, passion and loss." - Country Jukebox

"Becky wrote and produced all thirteen songs employing only the best musicians to blend pianos and guitars with mandolins, banjo and steel creating the most gorgeous bluegrass tinged sounds I have heard in quite a while. Though listeners will be thrilled by the instrumental sounds created here it is undoubtedly the beauty of the Schlegel voice that shines through pleasuring the ear whilst warming the heart." - The Advertiser (UK)

"Becky Schlegel is a breath of fresh air in bluegrass and country music. She is a triple threat who infuses the songs she writes with skillful guitar playing a pure sweet voice that not only tells a story, but makes you feel the emotions tied to those stories. DANDELION is a winner and an album that should be in every music fan's collection." - International Country Music Database

"The track is so rich in imagery and flavor that it brings to mind the best of Johnny Cash. Becky's delightfully sweet, neighborly vocals flit magically about the rustic tonal landscape." - Songwriter's Monthly

"Her songs have a stellar rootsiness to them while her gently lilting soprano voice (which can recall Alison Krauss, Dolly Parton and Jewel at various times) serves her material well. DANDELION is one of those albums you listen to when you’re actually listening as opposed to just driving along to the record. It’s a brilliantly crafted record that should be appreciated by many people for years to come." - Roughstock

"Becky poetically describes exactly what she's thinking & feeling in each and every song." - Nashville Country Club

"This is an album of many subtle charms. If she does, quite often, remind one of the young Dolly, Schlegel is a much better, not to say far less syrupy, songwriter." - 3rd Coast Magazine

"DANDELION (Lilly/IGO), (is) a collection of intimately written and performed originals ... highlighting Schlegel's earnest, soothing vocals." - Nashville Scene

"This album from Becky is a treat for all those listeners wanting something new. One of the most unique country bluegrass sounds heard in this market of music." - Digital Rodeo

"DANDELION draws on influences that range from Judy Collins to Joni Mitchell to Nanci Griffith to Alison Krauss ... even as Schlegel renders herself her own artist with satisfyingly smart meditations on relationships, time and landscape -- all of the songs are her originals -- and appealingly imagined production, courtesy of herself and Brian Fesler."
