Press Reviews Billboard editor Larry Flick gave Emily rave reviews and predicts "...radio exposure could lead to heavy-duty bonding between this charming young artist and young women." Local reviewers have called her music a cross between The Cranberries and Led Zeppelin. Sheena Metal's Freakin' Rock Review in ROCK CITY NEWS, LOS ANGELES says: "Lilith Fair meets Irish Faire in this progressive, orchestrated poppy delight! Cool female vocals backed by pro players and ethereal songwriting. Cool for an Irish Pub or the Palladium." In another RC News review G-Man says: "Emotional responses to the Emily O'Neary Band can be very high...with poetic lyrics and potent music...she sells the material with style."
