"Her beautiful voice, with its dazzling range and rich tones.... can
take your breath away... she runs the gamut of music like a Marx
brother crossing to stage left...", She's solidly based in her art and
is a superb musician. " New York Post
- 3.SWINGALICIOUS

Boy with Legere playing the piano, bouncing around, and singing like
crazy hitting everything from a High C's to Low F's backed up by Dem'
Brooklyn Bums featuring Broccoli Rabe on bass.
"Like Marylou Williams, she can maintain a rollicking
left hand that segues easily from stride to boogie - woogie while
tickling the piano's upper register into sublime submission.
Similarities to Jerry Lee Lewis are probably not impertinent either..."
New York TImes
Sitting down at the grand piano Legere launched into a hard driving
incredible boogie woogie...Phoebe Legere is a talent to be reckoned
with...a sharp wit permeates her lyrics...Vocally Legere possess a
powerful, precise 4 octave voice that is equally at home in the
operatic style as it is singing lowdown blues...In two hours Phoebe
Legere not only won a raft of new fans in Saratoga, she also
demonstrated that talent, intelligence and sex appeal need not be
mutually exclusive. Beyond the obvious attributes, it's Legere's warmth
and exuberance that will prompt us to watch for her return." Linda
Ellingsworth, Saratoga Chronicle
"Phoebe Legere is one of the most, inspired and talented
creative-supernovas on the planet...One of those rare luminous souls...
beautiful, wickedly funny, anointed with wisdom, and her music
possesses Native American mystical and healing qualities. like Billie
Holiday or Jimi Hendrix or Miles Davis or Sun Ra..." Dimitri Monroe,
Hits Magazine

 - "Phoebe Legere's latest recording is an incisive
critique of the role of contemporary culture in America in the form of
a post modern, urban opera. A dazzling, dizzying sound collage of
sampled soundtracks, spoken word, composed melodies, sound effects,
raps, electrobeats, and vocal and keyboard improvisations, it's a
shimmering soundscape of a night spent downtown with Legere as tour
guide...A tribute as much to the composer/vocalist/keyboardist's
virtuosic talent as to her keen wit and intelligence, "Blue Curtain"
surprises, shocks and entertains at every jagged turn. Simply put, it's
as important a piece of music as you're likely to hear all year, or any
year- Seth Rogovoy, The Berkshire Eagle
