Lyrics that people can relate to, with a hook that makes them come back for more. ******************************************************** Iwill admit that Goodbye is cliche-ish, but its pop-music. Kara's voice can only be described as melodic, sensual, hypnotic as she beautifully calls out the oxymoronic words of saying "goodbye" as the rest of us say a resounding "hello" to Mad Doll. Somebody should create a new television show just for this group to create a theme song for. GET THESE TWO A CONTRACT!!! ******************************************************** Billboard Magazine --- New & Noteworthy~Alluring newcomer Mad Doll with a verve and sass that would make today's leading pop ingenues green with envy. The New York-based duo of Jon Wolfson and lead singer Kara brings a new depth and surprising sensuality to the Burt Bacharach/Hal David composition, as Kara coolly wraps her chops around a moody, up-to-the-minute instrumental backdrop reminiscent of William Orbit's recent work with Madonna. A touch of kettle drums, a dreamlike midsection breakdown, and, thankfully, recreation of the wonderful trumpet hook so prevalent in the original all give this record such a unique touch. And don't be fooled that Mad Doll's first single is a cover. Aside from "Walk On By" its other recorded material is filled with self-penned anthems proclaiming strength, know how, and independence in a wide variety of capable styles, from rock/pop and groove-filled R&B to straight-ahead pop. This is an act that understands where its strengths lie, which, given this marvelous entree, covers about every genre of the mainstream radio spectrum. Utterly mesmerizing. ******************************************************** Review us at http://www.riffage.com/Bands/0,2939,7871,00.html
