''.. .. The Herald (four stars) **** ''O'Connor has one of the best voices heard in Scotland in some time, and a set of fine songs to show it off…''.. ..The List (four stars) **** There is an unmistakable modern twist to her music, and she flits effortlessly between, husky poppiness on the likes of 'Saturday Man' to soulful stripped down and spine tingling. ''.. .. The Daily Record (four stars) **** Having been hailed as "Neil Young meets Beyonce round at Joni Mitchell's house", the extremely talented daughter of Wet Wet Wet guitarist Graeme Duffin delivers the sort of languid Celtic soul that should win her even more fans... ..(Classic Rock Magazine). ''Miss O'Connor's vocal technique seems as fiery and precocious as her red hair.''.. ..''(Daily Mail) she sings like a veteran of the music scene''.. ..(The Sunday Mail)''With buckets of charisma and reminiscent of Fleetwood Macs Stevie Nicks, Esther struts her stuff like a real rock and roll princess.''.. ..Music News Scotland (Top album in top 4/ What's hot) ''This is an excellent album, passionately sung by a girl with a great future''.. .. The Daily Record ''Another stunning slice of pop folk from Scotland's stunning Esther O'Connor…She's the new Sheryl Crow, 2009 should be a good year… Spellbinding''.. ..The Scotsman ''Esther O'Connor- The countryish K.T Tunstall'' Doug Johnston.. .. Maverick '' ****''Captivating music... Rocks out in a seductive way thanks to Esther's fantastically feisty vocals.

The arrangements are consistently interesting & do much to raise the album above the competition.".. ..Edinburgh Evening News ''Redhead set to take the music industry by storm''.. ..(The Daily Record 'Hot scots list') "She's sizzling because she's got one of the best voices in the Scottish acoustic scene." .. ..''Get Ready to rock magazine (four stars)****''Right Here sees her keeping on the right track with a varied album that covers all the bases from pop to country to rock and folk… Sweet vocals and excellent songs''.. ..(Classic Rock Society) "Great songs throughout which take in rock, rootsy folk & country but maintain feelgood pop vibe which along with her sugar sweet lilt, should ensure lots of airplay for a very radio friendly album"... ..Blues Matters, Leith FM, Classic VRN Radio "This CD is packed with catchy essentially pop songs... sparkles and shines thoughout.".. .. Regional Reviews.. .. Burton Daily Mail "Sounds a bit Joan Osborne and a little bit Aimee Mann… Strong, sincere album. Loved it. (Emma Turton).. .. Gt. Yarmouth Advertiser The lyrics are emotive and very descriptive and the song structures Make the tracks memorable while the production offers the perfect balance between O'Connor's variable vocals and the acoustic/ electric guitar mix.. .. Berwickshire advertiser ''Her hauntingly beautiful voice picks you up and carries you along with her in each and every song... The title track opens the album and, like many of her songs, has the hint of Celtic influences, while Esther's lyrics tell you that 'All you ever wanted is right here' - and it certainly is... .. Southern reporter '' Her songs are thoughtful, upbeat and warming – the kind you put on when friends are round in the hope of being complimented on your trendy, just-off-mainstream taste in music... Live, she's impressive and has won the kind of accolades any established musician would be proud of.'' .. .. The Buteman live review ''A voice rich in depth and emotion''.. .. Online Reviews.. ..(Toxic Pete)'This album is mature and classy ... as chilled as it is edgy, as subtle as it is ballsy.''.. .. (Street Voice Fanzine) "This lady not only has a great voice, she's a great musician. Esther has got everything going for her and if there's any justice in this world you'll buy this album. It's brilliant. 9.5/10".. .. (Fairhearing review) ''Laidback Sheryl Crow hanging out in Fort William... A damn likeable album with depth and colour and the bravest bits work best''.. .. (Rhythm and Booze) ''Esther's vocals wrench at the heart strings as she delivers her sensational soul searching vocals'' .. .. (From Bumb to Grump) ''A mixture of lively and slower tracks make this an album to be enjoyed from start to finish''.. .. (Net Rhythms) ''She's got a firm grasp of upbeat radio friendly melodies, but Hope and Honesty show she's equally adapt at the more reflective soulful notes. My personal favourite would have to be Hold On, a jaunty fiddle bounced number with impossibly catchy chorus over which her voice soars... Given the airplay it deserves, there's every reason to expect her to be making quite a name for herself over the coming months.'' .. .. (Spoonfed online review) ''A new, powerful Scottish voice with a knack for uplifting melodies and a musical style pitched between K.D. Lang and Tori Amos. She's a striking looker with considerable vocal power and enchantment.''.. .. (Fifty3 reviews) ''Once in a while you hear a song which you hits you with a capital H on the very first listen and stays there. Esther O'Connor's new single, Lost Innocence, demands such attention and it will not be long until this young Scots singer will be a household name.'' .. .. (Fatea Online review) ''This is as good a slice of pop as you're likely to find anywhere complete with a voice to charm selkie..'' .. .. (Fatea Online review) ''This is as good a slice of pop as you're likely to find anywhere complete with a voice to charm selkie..'' .. ..Radio quotes.. ..Jeremy Vine (BBC Radio 2) ''Fresh, self-assured and original - Esther's music just makes you happy to be alive. What a great new talent.''.. .. (Bob Harris BBC Radio 2) ''...acoustic player of great note''.. ..(Tom Morton, BBC Radio Scotland) "Somewhere between Suzanne Vega and Sheryl Crow, with the plangent melancholy of one, and the sassy snap of the other, you'll find Esther O'Connor".. .. (Metro Radio/Bauer Radio Ltd, Chris Felton) ''Brilliant album! I am playing a lot of her tracks on air with great response, tipping her to be a "one to watch" for 2009...'' .. .. (West FM/ Bauer Radio Ltd James Pllu) "a great talent Scotland should be proud of in the year of the Homecoming".. .. (Nick Low BBC Radio Scotland) "Esther O'Connor's new album Right Here is a breath of fresh air. It shows a masterful songwriting talent and lush arrangements that draw on the vibe of classic Fleetwood Mac but with Esther's unique lyrical perspective on the world. The single Saturday Man is a catchy radio friendly slice of pop.".. .. (Northsound radio Bauer Radio Ltd Michael Gordon) "Finally, a pop record that you can listen to at full volume in the car, sit at traffic lights with the window's down, and not feel ashamed! .. ..Esther's voice oozes quality and like a roller coaster, "Right Here" takes you on a musical journey with as many twists and turns along the way. ''.. ..''The single is Perfect for radio, "Saturday Man" is pitched just right. Poppy enough to want to sing a long, and credible enough to sit alongside any singer/songwriter, in any playlist"... ..(Alan Robson MBE Metro Radio/ Bauer Radio Ltd) ''I think Esther has a fabulous voice and writes great songs with hooks that kill, how she is not a superstar already is beyond me".. .. (L107 Derek Mcintyre) ''Saturday Man, Such a catchy little song, where did this sing/songwriter talent sneak in from? But don't write Esther off as a one - hitter, the album is packed with more little gems of songs like Saturday Man... who knows what 2009 will bring for Esther O'Connor''.. .. Sue Marchant BBC Cambridge (and 5 counties) " Esther O'Connor - enchanting reality with a romantic glow, hug my ears anytime ".. .. (Nick Wakeman; Cuillin FM) ''An album that has been long overdue. At last, a new Scottish female star to rival the likes of KT Tunstall and Amy MacDonald. Powerful and emotive. Definitely on our playlist.''.. .. ......
