“She has a powerful voice, the ability to hold long notes without wavering, and a knack for making every song sound bluesy. Antoinette Montague’s delivery is heartfelt, infectious, and memorable.” — Scott Yanow, Los Angeles Jazz Scene

“‘Behind The Smile’ is a fitting start for this album because it represents how Antoinette Montague has a lot of things happening on many different levels. A jazz group accompanies her through a program of songs that ranges from the blues to soul to R&B to traditional pop to melodies by the great jazz composers. Ms. Montague’s singing incorporates and draws on all these traditions without being tethered to any one of them.” — Will Friedwald

“Antoinette has the instrument, delivery, and enunciation when performing that touches my soul.” — Jimmy Heath, National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master
