'Brilliant' Tom Robinson BBC Radio 6

'Phenomenal' God is in the TV

'I could, with ease, see this played on the summer-festivals, to thousands of people cheering upon hearing the opening notes' Criticism Fridge

'Roxy Rawson' is surely a name destined for showbiz. It is just as well then that her delicate, engaging music easily lives up to her name. Smothered in heart-wrenching emotion and unusual arrangements, Roxy Rawson proves that there's still space for a talented British female singer.' The 405

'Exciting things are sure to prevail for this promising singer.' More Than The Music

'...an artist headed for greatness.' Music News

'...a breath of fresh air. Devoid of competition in the current British climate, it draws some influence from Regina Spektor, but only in the sense that her sound is otherwise incomparable.' Drunkenwerewolf

'Roxy Rawson is a classically-trained Londoner armed with a violin, a delightfully quirky way with melody and an effervescent voice that darts and flits with happy, eccentric abandon. Her 2009 debut Changing Things was oh-so-Regina-Spektor-ish, a promising if precious first step that sparkled and fizzed with prodigious, scattered invention. Now a more mature Rawson prepares for the September launch of her debut full-length Quenching the Kill and lead single "Fingers" offers a heady preview of what's to come. The voice is fuller and softer around the edges, the production both spacious and nicely busy, strings pluckily plucked and caressed, the beats and fingersnaps propelling the song forward with more purpose and less abandon. Rhythm is still paramount, particularly with her vocal phrasing (something she picked up while singing with an African choir), but now the effect is supportive, pushing and prodding the melody forward rather than overwhelming it.' Direct Current

'This is great' Rob da Bank
