Mary Kaye is a singer-songwriter who "brings to the table one of the more captivating vocal presentations to come along in a good while. She boasts a wider than usual vocal range (from soprano to near bass), a very tight vibrato and dead-on accurate pitch across wide note spreads. They give her plenty of tools with which to express her music and she's obviously in control of all of them."
- Rick Huff of Western Way Magazine
"Gifted with one of the most dynamic and original voices in Western music, Mary Kaye delivers the goods with powerful, honey-dipped Southern vocals that demonstrate why [this artist] has already garnered top awards from both the Academy of Western Artists and the Western Music Association."
