"The sorely overlooked Tom Russell’s best “Blue Wing” gets an elegiac run, while Joni Mitchell’s “Coyote” seems to float in the ether.  All of it heralds the arrival of a star."

"It's sublime. Magic. She's got the best of the Canadian best backing her up. She's even got Nashville legend Tim O'Brien on fiddle and mandolin. Make some room on your 2014 Top 10's."

"...Prepare to be blown away by her performance on this outstanding solo effort."

"Rennison moves effortlessly from Stax-flavored soul to bluegrass to country to blues, recreating songs from Robbie Robertson, Leonard Cohen, Bobbie Gentry, Townes Van Zandt, Tom Russell, and Joni Mitchell."

"It’s been a long time since I’ve been completely overwhelmed with a voice that’s so sultry, so expressive, and so versatile. Add the splendid multi-instrument picking and production of Steve Dawson, and it makes for an exceptional record."

 " ...'See the Sky About to Rain' is a fascinating document of rare and mutable talent."

"See The Sky About to Rain is a selection from the great song bag of North American rock and soul music of the past four decades..."

"Her and Dawson’s care has resulted in an album that mixes the familiar and obscure, the bluesy and the country, and speaks well of her ability to interpret."

"Mixing country, folk and blues, it's an outstanding sampler of what Ms. Rennison can do."

"The album offers a collection of sublime material that fits together in a seamless musical journey, from some of the strongest composers around..."

"The subtle textures and the power of her emotion make it one of the better Americana releases of the year so far."

"From the very first vocal crescendo to the last thumb sliding crisply across six strings, this album is very much worth the listen."

"Her versions of Bobbi Gentry's Fancy and Booker T. and Priscilla Jones's My Crew are first rate, as well. Good song choices here, to go with the excellent musicianship and singing."

"If we put in our kitchen strainer a little bit of roots music, some Americana, a fifty percent of country and a few drops of folk, the result will be a delicious music performed by Canadian artist Colleen Rennison."
