Press Reviews
"With each new incarnation of Boy Wonder, singer/guitarist Paula Kelley gets closer to her true calling as a displaced '60s popster. In a previous life she would have been hanging out at the Troubadour on Sunset Strip, sharing a table with the Turtles and the Association. Instead, she's devoted herself to channeling the sound and spirit of that era, and the new Boy Wonder EP -- Break the Spell, Etc (Jackass), featuring an overhauled band lineup -- is her purest excursion into classic pop. But as usually happens when songwriters get closer to what's in their hearts, it also comes across as her most personal effort." Boston Phoenix |
