CD ReviewsYou, Me & A Redhead... 09/27/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "...the `02 release by one of the most unique singer-songwriters on the Boston music scene. Combining elements of country ("What's A Lonesome Girl To Do") and blues ("Don't Tell Me") with stark, honest, and sometimes quirky lyrics ("Battle Row"), this album is reminiscent of early Bonnie Raitt, Emmylou Harris, and even Patsy Cline. (Check out the Patsy Cline-inspired vocals on "Daddy Don't Fall Down.") In an age when country music is a mere half step away from pop drivel, this album is a revelation -- and something that no fan of country music should be without. (As a sidenote, if you have an opportunity to see Kerri Powers live, take advantage of it while she's still playing small venues. I finally had a chance to see her perform earlier this year and was completely blown away. The new songs she played will undoubtedly make another great album at some point as well!)" New England? Powers fits right into the Texas Sound Robert Pratt | Lubbock, TX United States | 01/14/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "It was shocking to discover this CD and learn that Kerri Powers was from the East. Her sound fits in perfectly with the Texas Sound which dominates regional styles in the USA. You can play her songs in a mix with Lyle Lovett, Nancy Griffith, Pat Green, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, the Flatlanders, Michelle Shocked, and the whole lot of great Texas singer-songwriters and no one would guess that she wasn't from around Lubbock and haunting the Austin music scene nightly. Great CD and the Daddy Don't Fall Down track is simply fabulous - along with every other track."
