   About Kristilyn Robertson

Kristilyn%20RobertsonQuantcast

"This music is in the vein of Terami Hirsch (without the electrics), Sarah Slean (without the drunk-ish vocals) and perhaps, Tori Amos (without the nuts). I love all those women and Robertson fits right in.

The piano is gorgeous. It makes me want to close my eyes and just melt while it washes over me. Her voice is semi-girly and sweet, but not too sugary. It's got an edge too. I like that there is a bit of a cabaret feel (which brings the Slean comparison)."

- Collected Sounds review of the The Bee Tree

"Her lyrics and music are creative and whimsical in a manner that would remind some of the band Eisley, without being a copycat. One might also be tempted to measure her against pop singer/songwriters like Vanessa Carlton, until you realize you can't because Robertson is better than that. Songs like "Your Lovely Bones" just tip the scale in Kristilyn's favour, exhibiting her artful lyrics and lovely vocals in a manner that should make everyone stop and notice. Overall, The Bee Tree is an album that you just can't sing enough praise about. It will take over your brain for a time and leave the goal of seeing Kristilyn Robertson live very high on your priority list. The Bee Tree leaves you wanting more in all the best ways."

- University of Alberta's The Gateway review of The Bee Tree
