"Pisano has that, so hard to find, vocal power to front a full blown rock band, while maintaining the beauty in her voice. No screamer here, just very solid songwriting and a powerful performance." -Ben Berry WPKN 89.5 FM Bridgeport

"Clearly, Pauline, has the talents and abilities and know how, to qualify her as gifted song-writer" -listener, taxi.com
"Rarely in today's music talent do we come across an artist who is both true to themselves, their roots, and their style. However Pauline Pisano embodies these philosophies in her profound vocal arrangements and emotionally-charged songwriting. The recent release of Pisano's second EP, "In The Middle," once again showcases her songwriting, piano and production savvy, as she continues to construct deep, radiant vocals.
