"There's a lot of heart in the charming music made by Rebecca Everett. It would be one thing just to record music that sounds like this, but Rebecca carries this sound everywhere she goes - she makes music that suits who she is deep down.
The classic-chic dresses, the hair all piled-up, a good selection of enchanting glasses, and the buckets of laughter she has for an increasingly dark and silly world - it's quite a package.
Her music is attention catching, and I want to know what's next."
Mark Wigmore - Reporter/Producer CBC RADIO 2
