“Ann Gray’s voice has a depth of emotion, a range of expression, an emotional nuance that is extraordinary in one so young. Then there are the lyrics- the quality of her word play, the emotional honesty, and the astonishingly mature insight into human nature are truly singular.” - Jim Bulleit
“Her voice is strong and articulate.” - Skye Zentz
“Ann Gray explores a variety of sonic landscapes. (She) is a gifted artist, and a songwriter to watch.” - Jeff Maisey
