“Amy’s
voice hits you like a refreshing warm breeze, her perfect diction
and crystal clear
tone seemingly effortless and at the same time passionate. Her
unique voice is as
warm as her personality, and perfectly suited to bluegrass,
country, as well as
any style she cares to sing.”

"In times of expensive light
shows and over-produced videos...Amy has tried
to recapture the roots, to return to the simple yet endearing
sounds of
traditional country music."
--Hartford Courant
In
my humble opinion, Amy Gallatin & Stillwaters rate right
up there with the best
of the best. Amy has a wonderfully expressive voice, a lively
stage presence,
and the band is absolutely first-rate. Resophonic guitarist
Roger Williams
is a master of his instrument, and his son, JD Williams, plays
mandolin as well
as any of the young firebrand musicians now attracting national
attention.
I
highly recommend Amy Gallatin & Stillwaters to any venue
owner, concert or
festival
promoter; and to any music fan who enjoys a top-quality concert
experience.

eclectic musical unit to the line-up of usual suspects.”

“Performing in one of the many
showcase suites was Amy Gallatin, who unleashed
her pure, silvery voice on music that ranged from bluegrass
through western
swing and contemporary folk, nailing each style with precision,
taste and
charismatic humor, and displayed a rare ability to move from
sweetness
to sassy grit, sometimes within a single phrase.”

“Where
"Phoenix" is the sort of spirited bluegrass that might
be heard on stage at any of the hundreds of festivals across
the country, "Something ‘Bout You" is more like
what
you’d hear if you slipped out the back door of the Ryman
Auditorium to Tootsie’s
Orchid Lounge, or any of the other smoky joints along Nashville’s
Broadway.”

“Gallatin’s
voice is obviously well-trained, lending an effortless purity
to her delivery of each song. This, combined with her willingness
to feature her band, and the often
overlooked instrumental wizardry and versatility … allows
the collective sound
of Stillwaters to be exceptionally full and polished.”

talent right under your nose. Take Amy Gallatin, the transplanted
Westerner who brings a truth and a yearning to her voice that
translates into real country traditionalism."

“While Gallatin's strength is in the bright, upbeat numbers,
Stillwaters shimmers
throughout the dozen-song collection, its chemistry evident
as they slip
forward into solos or pull back to join an undercurrent.”
