"[Serpent Tales & Nightingales] sounds great! Jennifer Grassman has a voice all her own in a world of conformity."
Christianity Today - May 11, 2010
"One of the more intriguing albums I've heard in a while, Grassman's 58-minute opus is a unique mix of bombastic prog rock, piano pop, and opera." ~ Mark Moring
The Houston Chronicle Review & Interview - March 3, 2010
"Grassman mines dark territory on her new disc ... There's a spiritual quality to several songs on Serpent Tales & Nightingales, but it's not an overtly religious album. The music is artful and accessible. Red is whimsical and clever; The Search has a devious charm; and Praying to the Walls is anchored by searing guitar work (courtesy of Jason Greenberg, Grassman's husband)." ~ Joey Guerra
The American Chronicle Review & Interview - June 28, 2010
A chilling melody plays around you, haunting lyrics drawing you into a story, pulling emotions from you, creating a vivid image of a world you somehow know. You´ve just heard a Jennifer Grassman song.
The Examiner - March 1, 2010
"Like many of her contemporaries (Kate Bush, Loreena McKennitt, Tori Amos) Jennifer Grassman’s music is not easily classified and offers a range of musical styles including the 1930’s jazz of “The Haunting” and “The Mad, Mad March Hare Acoustic Exposition”. Lyrically, Grassman writes songs that tell a story and often contain references to great literature." ~ David Sadof
2995 - March 4, 2010
"Drama jockey Jennifer Grassman releases her new disc, Serpent Tales & Nightingales, which sounds more mature than previous recordings and will appeal to Tori Amos fans who also love musical theater." ~ Sara Cress
