Editorial Reviews
"Anyone who's heard Marva Wright sing full-tilt knows that the woman is capable of a blockbuster ... Being born with the blues is one thing, but singing them this commandingly takes special talent." -- Offbeat
"Born and raised in New Orleans, Marva Wright is among the growing number of versatile and talented female vocalists emerging from the city known for the birth of the blues." -- All About Jazz
"A versatile singer of all forms of New Orleans R&B, venturing into gospel and soul as well ... powerful gutsiness marks her as one of the best blues/R&B singers to emerge in the final decades of the 20th century." -- All Music Guide
First release in nearly a decade! Brand-new studio recording from New Orleans' blues/soul shouter Marva Wright, supported by the cream of New Orleans musicians. Includes brilliant covers of classic blues, soul, and country tunes. If you haven't heard her music yet, the name is Marva Wright. Whether performing at concerts, nightclubs, riverboats, ballrooms, casinos, television, or radio stations, Wright sings from her heart and soul. Familiar blues, R&B, jazz standards, and gospel--as well as her own compositions--come to life in her sultry style. You can't help but snap your fingers, tap your feet, clap your hands, and/or get up and dance. Audiences all over the world are overwhelmed by Wright's electrifying performances. Marva Wright has won numerous awards, including Best Blues Vocalist from Offbeat, Best Female Performer from the Big Easy Entertainment Awards, and more.

"When The Levys Broke",Outstanding CD,
This review is from: After the Levees Broke (Audio CD)
This is an outstanding CD. It is very touching knowing what Marva Wright went through during and after Katrina! We saw her Oct 16,2008 at the Co Co Club on Burbon St in New Orleans. Her performance was moving. Her voice so crisp and clear. I recommend this CD to those who love the blues!
