They excel here, on a record that grows with each listen (...) The seventies feel close and my thoughts go to artists like Carly Simon, Carole King, Billy Joel and to some extent Joni Mitchell. Beautiful melodies and a good variation between the groovy and the delicate on an album that feels as bright as a laidback, sunny sunday morning. Meadow Music blog
Their jazzy pianopop is built upon a solid songwriting handcraft that leads the thoughts to before mentioned Paul Simon and the Brill Building songwriters, especially Carole King. (Translated from Swedish) Skånskans Nöjesblogg.
I´m enjoying a lot these songs. I don´t think Rock this Town is just my favourite track by Simone Says. I´ve been listening to it as a top song on my collection. I really like the jazzy feeling your pop music. It´s like Alanis Morisette joined Jamie Cullum and it was born a great album.

  • Lyrics to the songs on the album "Simone Says" 2013
Yeah, the dark haired girls, I remember you. It was like, every single song you played was good, and it just kept coming! Person in the audience remembers us one year after an open stage gig.

I personally think it is one of the best albums I have heard for a very long time (...) I am definitely going to recommend this band/album and their uplifting and refreshing music. The sound is very unique and I can tell that this is only the beginning for Simone Says. Alexander Kristjansson on his blog ACK Visual arts
There is a doubleness in it I like. The piano, the songwriting, and Bakkes vocals leads my thoughts to New York, while the tone in Scarpatis viola is more european; it makes me think of Django Reinharts old suire, Stephane Grapelli. Skånskans Nöjesblogg (Translated from Swedish)

Or direct link here.
This is really original in the truest sense of the word. I will not even start counting all different genres from different parts of the world that can be heard here. But I think it is a really, really good, lovely pop song that I very much would like to hear again. Member of the jury Oscar Lindberg about Simone Says contribution I´m running in the contest GPscen live 2012. (Translated from Swedish)
