"There's not a thing about this album I would change. I love her voice, lyrics, and the music behind it all. It's both earthy and alien and I can't stop listening to it."

ROOTSTIME, BELGIUM "Wisdom and a kind of innocence exist side-by-side in Liz Tormes's voice and in her songs. Her emotional but unsentimental sketches of the vagaries of love are clearly personal, but they conjure up feelings that are sadly familiar, although we may have mercifully forgotten the details. On Limelight, Tormes provides just enough of her own to gently probe the leaps of faith and logic that people employ to make unwise and sometimes dangerous connections... "

"Strains of Britpop, garage rock and country slyly slink through Tormes' sparse, gothic-leaning debut. The NYC-by-way-of-Nashville singer-songwriter possesses a gorgeous, soulful voice that at times recalls Margo Timmins, with a little more sugar and less smoke. "Darkness has been a friend to me," Tormes sings on the disc-ending "Fade Away", and by that point, you know she ain't joking. "

"Liz Tormes is an artist who makes it all sound so simple - her seemingly effortless vocals glide across graceful melodies, drawing you into her darkly beautiful songs. If Aimee Mann and Neko Case had a little sister who was politely clamoring for the spotlight, Tormes is what you'd hear. Don't miss her first effort, Limelight. "
