"The second I heard Angela's voice I knew her soulful, smoky sound would fit absolutely perfect with the vibe of the song," he explains. "
A bit of a 60's flavor mashed up with our current generation."

"She's got a lot of reasons to feel chuffed with herself, and it's a delight to meet someone so self-confident in themselves at this stage of their career. Did we mention she's toured extensively with big-top acts as diverse as The Kinks and Cyndi Lauper?"

"Although she might come off as a cross between Macy Gray’s raspy and sometimes quirky delivery and the sultry style of Cerys Matthews (Catatonia), McCluskey is able to bridge American pop with British soul for an intriguing, engaging, and impressive 13 songs"
- Jason MacNeil, PopMatters
"Glasgow-born singer-songwriter Angela McCluskey (who actor Norman Reedus has said has “the mesmerizing voice of an angel”) has made good work of spontaneity. It has resulted in collaborations with everyone from Cyndi Lauper to Telepopmusik to Robbie Robertson, and more recently Kendrick Lamar and Azealia Banks; it’s also made for a distinctly unconventional musical life."

"If you’ve heard the name of Angela McCluskey but can’t place it is because she’s been around for a while now – first with the L.A.-based Wild Colonials and then with French trio Telepopmusik – and although you’ve probably heard her songs in a show like Boardwalk Empire, she consciously goes out of her way to keep out of the limelight, preferring to let the music do all the talking.  And now, her newest release, The Roxy Sessions is delivering a very loud and attention-drawing roar.  It’s an interesting mix of European-styled torch and music hall songs (in a Brechtian vein), some chill grooves and well, a completely indescribably stew."
