“Singer/songwriter Stephanie Nilles makes something fresh out of things lost. A graduate of Cleveland Institute of Music, she is a serious classical pianist gone bard. When you think Nilles, think of a quirky mix of subversive vagabond and sultry artist, a burlesque cocktail of wit and substance. No need to wonder what she’s thinking — she weaves it into her music, which growls like Eartha Kitt and bites like Tom Waits … With a unique outlook on life, music that’s as intellectual as it is entertaining and a voice capable of transcending the tracks of the indie railroad, Nilles is just the kind of treasure that music aficionados love to discover.”

“Despite the sparseness of the band – a trio with only bass and drums, and occasional vocal texturing – the album offers a surprisingly rich stew that blends Brock’s expertise in jazz, indie-rock, and folk. The Magic Number gets better with each hearing, which speaks as much to the focused intensity of Brock’s concept as it does to his command of the violin.”
