Press Reviews
Featured as one of the "Women of MP3.com" ... www.tinman.org/interview.html ... also, review by Nick Dedina of Listen.com ... "Braiden's keyboard-heavy, melodic instrumentals embrace new age, pop, and even touches of World Music. More conventional than most Windham Hill artists but has the same rainy, Evergreen feel." |
