A voice like honey and whiskey, lyrics like... well, honey and whiskey. New album coming
soon.
PRESS
"An indy folk voice that commands attention. Her restless sound is evolving from the low-fi Jolie Holland flutter into a richer, swing-jazz influenced beating of wings."
- SF Folk Fest
"San Francisco darling and specialist in the simple jazz sound that Leslie Feist has made a
career out of. Her standard guitar chords blend to form adorable jazz pop songs. Reiter's set
was sugar cane sweet."
-Daytrotter, Caleb Morairty
“Dizzying folk melodies, acoustic-symphonies, and voices tangled into harmonized quilts that lay on your shoulders after you leave.”
- SF Station
"Mmmm-mm-mm," she hums, as if a folk-song can tie two lovers together - in spite of everything."
-The Skinny, Sean Michaels
“There's no denying Reiter's resemblance to Jolie Holland's breathy, angelic vocals, though Reiter leans more towards folk and indie pop despite her jazzy intonation. Reiter's warmth belies the melancholy of her songs, though her voice alights so gently over her troubles it's easy to be mesmerized by their beauty.”
- Independent Weekly, Chris Parker
“Reiter’s lyrics contain a road-trip sensibility, when music of this kind and a long drive through fields of nothingness is the only way to heal a broken heart.”
- Phoenix New Times, Steve Jansen
"Her pairing of a lovely vocal style and simple guitar work is intimate, playful, and charming. "
- Free Press Houston
"She starts singing and that’s when you’ve got to realize that she’s been illuminated, a few times over."
- Daytrotter, Sean Moeller
“Reiter sang with an edge of harshness, just enough to make her beautiful voice sound realistic. After playing a song about Mormons, another listener said, "More of that." "More songs about Mormons?" "No, just more of that." I couldn’t have said it better myself.”
- Isthmus, Nick Griffin
Ash Reiter -PAPER DIAMONDS
