'..Songs that defy categorization.. cinematic, bluesy…rootsy…idiosyncratic.. highly original lyrics backed by piano chops!  One wants to hear more of Detor..' 
- Oregon Mail Tribune
If God's very favorite angel got sick of His shit, smoked a pack of Reds, drank some Jack and Gate-crashed a piano bar, this is how she would sound. Krista's voice is two parts holy and one part hussy, perfectly complimented by expert piano work that will leave you wrung-out but ready for more. I can't say enough about this super-dope soul out of the Indiana outback, she's the TRUTH!”
 - Ace Ha , Producer for Geffen artist Prima J

 “..A Great Voice!”
- Gary Katz, Producer (Laura Nyro, Steely Dan)
