"I find Nomi's songs so catchy and melodic and I'm tempted to say whimsical... but on second thought, I think it would be a mistake to say that her songs are whimsical - if I focus on the lyrics and let in what she's saying, the whimsy drifts away, and I find the songs to be something else entirely: I find them to be important. Song writing aside, Nomi has special presence about her when she's playing (and also when she's not playing) and I find her performances to be one of the highlights of my night."-JJ Shultz musician and host of the Hotel Utah open mic -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"You're a real woman" -Honeybody Moonbee
