"An unlikely mix of Aaron Neville, the Baka people, and Joni Mitchell, Cluck's singing is unaffected yet unusual." -NPR The unique, dramatic musical creativity of Brooklyn singer-songwriter Diane Cluck has an arresting quality that many critics have tried to describe, but, like so much music, you just have to come experience it to "get it." Time Out New York writes, "Bell-clear and hotly austere, her lithe, dynamic voice hasn't much kin. Categorizing her as folk is simplistic. . . (Cluck) emanates something humble but mythic. Appalachia or ancient Athens? Both hum and lilt in the unpretentious drama of her airy songs." After a Tiny Desk Concert, NPR wrote: "Watching Cluck perform jams the senses. It's almost easier to imagine some tiny spirit in her chest is controlling the action, turning a pitch wheel with one hand and a tone knob with the other." And Village Voice wrote: "She is likely one of the most refined and elegant songwriters in all of neo-folkdom. A brilliant idiosyncratic guitarist, a witty and wise lyricist, an imaginative melody writer with a powerful voice; her dark and introspective tunes are utterly captivating. Watch her spellbind the room." -Village Voice
