"Laura Cheadle is a young, jeans-wearing singer & multi-instrumentalist who writes songs in the coffeeshop-love-song tradition & renders them in a smooth-funky, B3 kind of way".
-Time Out NY
"...Not only does Laura have the voice and the looks to back up her musical talent, but she also has that indescribable “it” star quality that hoists her a level or two above most other extremely talented local acts."
--Philadelphia Music Examnier
"Knowing it's a cliche judging a book or in this case an artist by her "cover" is a pleasant surprise. LAURA CHEADLE is a young white woman with a big guitar she shows that she has just a big a voice, with a solid R&B, bluesy, jazzy, soulful sound. She applies her voice well, in a way that would makes the likes of Bill Withers or the Reverend Al Green smile. Very '70s blue eyed soul with sexy inflections, soaring from a blast on one cut to a breathy whisper in another. Now that the cover has been removed, I now think, of course, Laura is playing what is natural to her, and a pleasure to listen."
-- Robert Barry Francos/Jersey Beat Magazine
"Coffeehouses or concert halls, Laura Cheadle has a bright future among the current crop of young songwriters. What sets her apart, though, is that her roots are planted firmly in the past. An acoustic guitar strapped to Cheadle's back through most of the set, her robust voice was clearly the centerpiece of each song. Etta James and Ray Charles both echoed in the material. Norah Jones, Fiona Apple, and a few others have had success in the past decade or so with similar musical formula, but Cheadle's appreciation for the soul and blues of the 60's gives her music a quality all its own. Add into the equation her remarkable stage presence, her personal lyrics, and her session-ready band, and you've got a winning R&B combination."
