Needless to say, this album excites me! I love her blend of country and rock...
Her vocal tone is simply wonderful...

If there's any artist she can be compared to, it would be Lucinda Williams.
Both are country rockers with an honest and true approach to their craft.
The album skillfully blends soft country ballads and high energy rock...
This the real thing from an artist with integrity!

| – she's now a part of this exclusive team. She is uncompromising and willing to listen. The music is unpolished and full of temperament, hard-hitting and sensitive without any conveniences. A very potent combination." Svein Andersen, Aftenposten/national newspaper Norway |

Wright seems to have found her style and expression within the framework of country music,
and I sincerely believe her when I hear her lyrics.
Honesty, perhaps the most important ingredient in country music, is definitely in place here"

"The title of Karin's new CD says quite well what it's all about ...
«Too Rock ‘N’ Roll For Country
(Too Country For Rock’N’ Roll)».... Karin gives us several strong rock songs.
There are some really beautiful songs that are catchy and appealing, both in terms of vocal and instrumentally
Including the title track, Too Rock'n'Roll for Country, Dancing in my mind .. and others.
The ballad Long Lost Higway is also a nice song and so is "Lucky Once."
