Cynthia Angelica
“There is a sense of comfort that peaks through suspended moments. Those parts where a syllable has been held so long that the textual meaning disappears, and purely distilled emotion remains.” – Charlie Maybee, Alchemical Records
“Cynthia Angelica’s gifted soothing voice never fails to leave the audience with chills down their spines.” – Damien Reid, Illustrate Magazine
“Listening to ‘Grace’ is like taking a deep breath, coming face to face with your demons and choosing to give it all up to a higher power, lifting the weight from your shoulders.” – Gabriel Mazza, We Are YMX
“Grace’ perfectly captures the ominous feeling of living in a world where every day is a whirlwind of turmoil and spinning it into something that can offer a bit more solace than the current state of reality.” – Kendra Beltran, Rising Artists
“Our favorite part of ‘Flatline’ has to be Cynthia’s voice, not because of its dynamics, but based on the sheer conviction and sincerity with which she delivers each and every line.” – Austin Sheer, We Write About Music
