King Tuts Your Sound Artist of the month November 2007
“Lou Hickey sounds like a female Nick Cave, creating sepia-toned vignettes of restless lives. The Glasgow singer/ songwriter is at one moment touchingly sad and broken, the next ballsy and angry. Think of a grown up Lilly Allen. A Lie is a laid-back and jazzy torch song, while the piano led Does It Get Easier? is a superb break-up song mixing smoky jazz with rock rhythms and wail of a violin. It also boasts the lyrics "I can watch the dust settle on our love". Now that’s poetry.” Daily Record
“Her smoky vocals are perfectly suited to the old world glamour of Club Noir” The List
“Bittersweet piano-driven songs with a dramatic edge” The List
“Acclaimed singer/songwriter” Evening Times
“Her melodies ooze atmosphere and whisky-filled
melancholy - simply can’t be missed.” smallfish-online.net
"A creditable set from an emerging artist." The Skinny
“Raw intimacy, alluring vocals and warm musical sounds
paint a picture of love’s highs and lows.” havemousewillclick.com
“The production is superb and it sounds as though the Kronos Quartet have been roped in for backing. Her sweet vocals and sumptuous melody hark of a bygone era. In fact for just a moment I imagined myself as a spy in wartime Paris sitting in a café listening” crookedrain.co.uk
