Louisiana has been known to produce strange and wondrous things: Voodoo, Mardi Gras, and now Maggie Brown. Her musical ability runs the spectrum from folk rock to country to outlaw rock.......the album is a complete smash and will no doubt have an impact on the alt-county rock landscape.
Jim Campbell, PLAYBACK
it's the thrilling sound of an undeniable talent finally getting a chance to break out.....Mixing rock and country with a dash of the blues, Brown has already drawn apt comparisons to Delbert McClinton and Bonnie Raitt; this record makes it clear she has already earned her own place among those artists.
Nick Cristiano, Philadelphia Inquirer
Her album
is full of songs about a woman who often finds herself with "no place to be
but gone," and it introduces a voice that's weathered but never less than feisty.
--Jon Pareles The New York Times
Incisive vocals and witty, frequently humorous songwriting are the twin virtues that make Maggie Brown one of the year's more pleasant surprises. Brown can be anguished or inviting, sensual or angry and she expresses all these and many other emotions in explosive vocal performances on songs like "Forty Dollars," "Jacob's Eyes," "Used Cars" and "Nowhere to go but Crazy.
Ron Wynn The City Paper
A Beautiful voice steeped in the southern sounds of the Mississippi Delta. Brown oozes soul on her self- titled debut.

Maggie Brown has delivered one of the best debut albums Ive ever heard...a reminder of just how damn good music can be when you strip away all the pop gloss and get back to the basics...will end up making the short list of must have releases of the year.
Maggie Brown is the real deal.
Jeff Krasky, Women of Country
A phenomenal debut CD...Her music is a heaping plateful of swampy southern rock and country with a soulful side order of delta blues and folky tunes.
Jessica Benavides Best In Texas
Part Playful barroom banter and part heartland sincerity, its soothing nature is paralleled by its raw strength.

If Delbert McCLinton and Bonnie Raitt had a daughter she sound, no doubt, sound like Maggie Brown. Used Cars is one of the most honest and real songs Ive heard this year!
Dennis Banka, WUCZ
Sheryl Crow - meets - The Black Crowes guitar rock vibe, and a little hint of Norah Jones...some mighty catchy stuff that sticks to your ribs.
Joe Sixpack
A brilliant debut full of musical maturity that catapults it without detours into the first league of the top singer-songwriters!
Barchen Records, Germany
As brutally honest as a dog fight and every bit as compelling...so much painful truth in that velvety burr it raises the hairs on the back of your neck.
Patrick Wallace
It's obvious that Maggie has lived these songs. There's a sense of a volcano blowing in the making of this record in that it bursts forth with intensity and passion." Jessie Scott X Country on XM Satellite Radio
Maggie Brown is someone youll be hearing a lot more from!!!
