PRESS COMMENTS about Kinzli's debut album "Going just to be going":
"This record is one of the best performances I have reviewed. The production is sublime, the band is full of enthusiasm and Kinzli creates a style and a standard for us all to admire."
- Beckie A, THE MAG
"Kinzli is a musical magpie picking up the shiny bits everyone loves from an impressive range of genres. So much so, Going Just To Be Going is more like a great compilation tape than an album from one artist."
– The Fly
"It’s that sort of honesty and emotion that runs through the album and gives you the connection, you also know it’s coming from the heart from a very talented lady who has certainly lived."
- The Beat Surrender
"Brave, adventurous and talented, Kinzli is definitely one to watch."
- Clare O'Brien, Subba Cultcha
"Going Just To Be Going is beguiling - a serene collection of melodious magnetism. Kinzli’s voice is quite beautiful; flutey and soulful, with a hint of Eva Cassidy, exhibiting a maturity beyond her years... This debut oozes retro-charm; the ideal leisure album."
-Alice Stride, Sheffield Steel Newspaper
"...vocal equivalent of Antony Hegarty (& The Johnsons). It’s often hard to find a niche for someone so eclectic. She straddles jazz, folk, country (and shades of gospel) with effortless ease, which can often be a problem for the casual listener. She’s not your Norah Jones or Katie Melua by the way. For starters, her voice is quite unique, with an effective quiver that seems to suit all the material... "
-Elly Roberts, All Gigs UK
" 'Going Just To Be Going' by the gifted Kinzli is more than a bit special - Kinzli's whole approach to her craft is bold and adventurous but classy and totally compelling. Although pushing at genre boundaries, the eclectic nature of her work provides a great safety net and opens up whole new musical horizons. Kinzli's an exceptional artist and this is an exceptional album!"
