"Her song's landscapes evoke the similar worlds of artists like Bruce Springsteen or Gillian Welch. And like them, her language alternates between the poetic and blue collar." John Dworkin/BLURT - See more at: http://www.kerripowers.com/bio/#sthash.xSqgFWkt.dpuf

(Excerpt of "Kerri Powers" CD review by Chip McCabe)
"Powers is the exact definition of Americana. Her music spans the wide pantheon of almost every style of music that is distinctly American. Country, blues, roots rock, it's all there for the giving and the taking. The album opens with the track "Old Shirt" which has a distinctive Wilco/Son Volt vibe when both bands are doing their best to channel Neil Young. It's immediately followed by the slide-guitar wielding excellence of "Buttercup" where Powers is suddenly transformed into the bastard child of Lightnin' Hopkins. This track is immediately followed by "Train In The Night", which is a heart-string-tugging acoustic ballad. And so it goes for Powers as she deftly dances back and forth through a truly dizzying array styles. Never once does she sound out of place though, and never once do you question her song choices. She's got a lot to say and a dozen ways to say them. Whether she's feeling soft and quiet or rambunctious and gritty, Kerri Powers speaks with a voice that simply must be heard." - See more at: http://www.kerripowers.com/pressreviews/#sthash.Go3qAZEJ.dpuf
