“Randy Newman’s songbook is in good hands. Karen Oberlin is a versatile singer whose clear tone and intense interpretations explore genres ranging from pop and jazz, standard lyrics, vocalese and bop. Settling now into the iconoclastic musical world of Randy Newman, she brings out his music about life and people, in her own way, with her own voice.” — Cabaret Scenes
“Oberlin has impeccable style (and) musical intelligence” — The New York Times
“Thrilling… Karen Oberlin is such a welcome addition to the often noisy and pointless cabaret scene that one can even imagine her accompanied by a celesta without causing the slightest hint of boredom” — New York Observer
“Oberlin proves herself to be not just a fine singer, but also a bold actor.” — BistroAwards.com
