Press: “Seduction and story are typically the themes, and Angel Russell is a master of both – her lyrics tell sultry stories of passion and lust, and the theme carries through in her vocals.” -Fensepost.com “With the assistance of the extremely talented Angel Russell, “Reverse Osmosis & Dishwasher Safe” is an obvious personal cut. But, your average love-struck and dumbfounded troubadour shall be able to relate to it’s meaning as well. The more ambient friendly “Niya” (which also features the multi-talented Russell in assistance) brings out the almost supernatural comparisons of the walking (pun intended) species of man and the trees and land they walk amongst. Wanderings and Distractions‘ overall track list is well distributed in folk, and perfectly maintained in strangeness.” -Ron Trembath In reference to Bird by Iridescent Pheasant. “. . .it’s one of the CDs recorded by one of our talented Island musicians, such as Angel Russell and Adam Howell’s “Bird,” that you send to remind someone about the Island.” -Martha’s Vineyard Times
