QUOTES/REVIEWS:
Americana-uk.com 9/10 ~ October 2, 2012 By Sian Owen
“It’s one of those rare albums where you have to listen to it all in one sitting. Like a good book that’s hard to put down, this ‘Sleeping with Strangers’ tickles the ears and within three bars you’re completely hooked.”
Pennyblackmusic.co.uk ~ Malcolm Carter
“Without a duff song in sight, ‘Sleeping with a Stranger’ is thirty-seven minutes of perfection.”
The Globe and Mail ~ Brad Wheeler ¾ Stars
“This is a singer-songwriter who observes, feels, does not judge, and relays what she finds – “not good at keeping secrets,” she even admits. With a voice high, strong and bittersweet, the affecting Nova Scotian sings of search, vulnerability and the concept of home.”
Windsor Lance ~ Jason Rankin
“Sleeping With a Stranger is an original, breathtaking experience that’ll take you on an acoustic ride with Christina Martin’s lovely voice. If you want to escape the summer heat, try Sleeping With A Stranger.”
Exclaim ~ Randi Beers “Martin’s long, successful career, which has taken her to Austin, TX, during which time she opened for alt-country legends Wilco, has made yet another successful pit stop with the release of Sleeping with a Stranger.”
