REVIEWS

Rockin' the 57th! YES!!! Review of 'Wild Things' by: Arun Shenoy. GRAMMY Nominated Producer ~ "An incredibly powerful record that reaches into the greatness and depth of what rock and roll has to offer. The music has you grooving hard from the time you hit play right up to the end. From the music on my favorite track "Burn" to the more Judas Priest styled vibe on "Hurricane" ; to "Acadia" with the more Americana style vibe and the good old rock and roll on tracks like "Love Drive", the album just keeps evolving as it plays on. The Gospel styled harmony vocals and superb bluesy guitar and organ performance on "Change" to the wicked use of the synth melodies on "Like You do", Excellent! "Higher Power" brings the album to a beautiful close, and then I start all over again. Great fiddle and violin work too and of course, an amazing vocal performance by Gaudet"
- Arun Shenoy. GRAMMY Nominated Producer https://www.facebook.com/#!/ArunShenoyMusic

Real energy attitude, great vocals and guitar riffs abound throughout this album. The songwriting is excellent throughout this album and I bet it sounds great live. The whole album is the strength of melody in the songwriting and Christina definitely has a style of her own. Like You Do which is very strong and, one of my favorites I could easily imagine being used in a soundtrack and I could easily imagine Music Supervisors appreciating. A great album that will see more plays in my car over the coming months. Well done Christina!

Going back to my roots of Classic Rock music 'Wild Things' by Christina Gaudet is just that .... this is a no hold bared explosion of enduring talent and a true testament to her professionalism and honesty to her genre ... so many times while listening to this I heard so many voices I thought I was listening to from the past and finally arrived to resolve - This is Christina Gaudet and I like her. This is a true in your car with windows open racing down the highway with the music blasting out of the vehicle, and me in the car screeching at the top of my lungs playing the drums on the steering wheel. I wish only the Best of things this G Season and the future Christina - I truly love where this takes me to or back. ~ Randall at dexterchordmusic, NARS Voting Member


Don't let the lovely face and creamy complexion fool you. Christina Gaudet ROCKS! Her new CD, "Wild Things" is truly WILD! Her powerful voice charges through each song, and her vocals are spot on. Excellent back-up vocals add to the depth of the arrangements. Guitars, fiddles, horns, organs, and other instruments show off Christina's New Orleans roots. Her songwriting is imaginative and excellent! WOW! Christina is one of a kind! If you like female rock, you must have this CD. If you don't like female rock, then get "Wild Things," and you WILL become a fan! Excellent CD! Loved it!
~ Sue Straw, NARS Voting Member

"Christina is like a mixture of Janis Joplin, Joss Stone and Mary Chapin Carpenter all rolled into one! I hope she gets the Grammy's attention with this album!" --Ryan Cole ~ Writer at Nashville Enterprises, NARS Voting Member

"This twelve tracks CD is excellent! Christina Gaudet is exciting and original! You just have to listen to "Wild Things" by Christina Gaudet. This CD is a fabulous listening experience. My next move is to listen from the top "one more time...right now"!!" --Monty Guy ~ NARS Voting Member

"Its nice to know there are a few artists out there that can still deliver music that will make your jaw hit the floor while plucking your heart strings at the same time. Gaudet - she is a premier talent that makes this whole experience special. Her voice is intoxicating! After hearing her music I must say she's the quintessential vocalist/artist the world needs right now. I dont say stuff like that often!"
MUSIC EMISSIONS MAGAZINE, UK ~ Michael Morrison

"Gaudet commands an advanced to elite singing and songwriting ability. The strongest aspect of the production is the soulful feel you get from Gaudet and her band. The Songs will remind you of Sara Bareilles, Missy Higgins, Lea Michele, Stevie Nicks, Bonnie Raitt, and Melissa Ferick. I kept waiting for a weak song to come - I eventually gave up on that! .. powerful and at times explosive album with amazing stories that possess incredible and impassioned highs and lows. The music will sizzle your ears into submission! Trust me when I say this stuff can't be faked! Listening to the “Wild Things” by Christina Gaudet will open your eyes to the possibilities of what could be when a great artist decides to take us back to our traditional Rock n' Roll roots!
INDIE SHARK MUSIC CRITIC ~ Ricky Farmer


"Gaudet can sing like nobody’s business. Her voice has an amazing warm and likeability factor but is powerful like Ann Wilson. Gaudet has delivered on “Wild Things” and it almost feels as if she’s on to something, well special. Gaudet is obviously experienced at performing and writing powerful music, but it’s the combination of all of the above that makes her so deadly. ..conservative and painfully simple yet brilliant in scope .. they make it look so easy. Bravo to Gaudet for being herself, going against the pop grain and releasing powerful music!"
INDIE MUSIC ARTIST DIGITAL MUSIC RADIO NETWORK ~ Tori Lane


"A stellar performance! The fact that her vocal delivery has been compared to both the soulful croon of Annie Lennox and to the legendary wail of Janis Joplin is a testament to her impressive adaptability. Right away I can hear vocal comparables to Celine Dion, Lara Fabian, Birdy. Lana Del Ray, and Digby. Since were on the subject I can also hear traces of Erin McCarley, Idina Menzel, Anna Nalick, A Fine Frenzy and Venessa Carlton. Whether you like electronic pop, alternative rock sensibilities or a hard rock staple, rest assured Christina Gaudet is making her presence known in an otherwise commercial myriad of soulless clutter!"
INDIE ARTIST ALLIANCE MAGAZINE ~ Norman Wellington

"Intelligent lyrics and heart-stopping melodies lines are at the heart of her music! Gaudet’s spin on life through her music possesses a very accessible signature sound! Christina Gaudet is an artist worth watching!"
ROCK N' ROLL REVIEW ~ Lizzy Allen

"Gaudet reminds me of Linda Rondstadt, Lucinda Williams, Allison Krauss, Maria Muldar and Rory Block. On “Wild Things” her latest and greatest release Gaudet delivers! Gaudet’s unique voice – all at the sonic center of it all!"
ALL WHATS ROCK ~ Norman Fuller


“Wild Things” by Christina Gaudet is truly a highlight release with some incredible moments that portray true grit & emotion that will sure to evoke strong reactions from many. The amazing vocal and songwriting finesse just bring the whole thing together via her charm and charisma.
"GIG BAND MAGAZINE ~ Joanne Worley

"The music reminds me of a combination between Dokken, Heart, Bonnie Tyler, Evanescence and even Lita Ford. On the other side of the sonic spectrum I can even hear Bonnie Raitt, Janis Joplin, Susan Tedeschi, Shelby Lynne, Lucinda Williams, Allison Krauss. From start to finish, “Wild Things’ brings the mojo. Let me go on record by saying Christina Gaudet Rocks the house.!"
INDIE MUSIC DIGEST ~ Cyrus Rhodes

INDIE MUSIC DIGEST ~ INTERVIEW with Cyrus Rhodes

"She captures that classic rock-Pop sound - like the legendary band Heart. Christina Gaudet proves she is a musical force to be reckoned with!"
VENTS MAGAZINE ~ RJ Frometa, Head Honcho, Editor in Chief

Wild Things ~ Review By Wildy Haskell: Christina Gaudet rips up the script on Wild Things!

Christina Gaudet has done it all. A veteran of Broadway (Staggerlee, Tales From Manhattan) and
off-Broadway productions (Randy Newman’s Middle of Nowhere), Gaudet has also recorded and or performed with the likes of Allen Toussaint, Ruth Brown and Leiber and Stoller. With eight prior albums under her belt, Gaudet enters 2014 on the strength of a new song cycle entitled Wild Things.

Christina Gaudet rips up the script on Wild Things, kicking things off with the vibrant title track. Elements of classic rock and Evanescence style glam collide here with delicious results. The energy here is intense, and Gaudet avoids any sense of cliché.

Christina Gaudet finds her footing early on Wild Things, Gaudet is at her best in the high powered rockers, The effort is strong, and the outcome is solid. ~ Three Stars ~ Widly Haskell -

"... Gaudet is a cross between Stevie Nicks & Billie Holliday"
-- Alec Cunningham

"... an energetic, razor sharp performance ... "
-- John Mahoney - ReadarticlesOnline.com

"A polished performer, ... true to her unvarnished self"
-- Nick Deriso - AllAboutJazz.com -

2010 ~ SOLID

Review by Nick DeRiso, Music Critic

For all of her wandering, Allen Toussaint remains this touchstone for New Orleans-born vocalist Christina Gaudet. But Gaudet doesn’t let her lasting affinity for a hometown soul legend pigeonhole her wider ambitions on Solid, though it’s subtitled “Featuring new songs by Allen Toussaint.” She’s particularly adept at engrossing Cocteau Twins-inspired dream pop, an ethereal landscape that couldn’t be further away from the aromatic musical gumbo of the Big Easy’s famous French Quarter. If anything, Toussaint’s trio of oh-so funky compositions seems to gird Gaudet for this ongoing journey away from her native environs.

They met when Gaudet, having moved to New York City, shared the stage with Tony winner Ruth Brown in the Toussaint-penned 1986 Broadway production “Staggerlee.” Later, they recorded together at Toussaint’s Sea Saint Studios. Each time, Toussaint seemed to trigger something in Gaudet, whose theater work had taken her as far away as Denver, CO. She began exploring the rhythms and colors of her childhood, and found herself working with soul-stirring songwriters like Leiber and Stroller and Randy Newman in separate stage productions. When Hurricane Katrina roared ashore in 2005, devastating their native city, Gaudet decided to issue some of the 1990 Toussaint recordings from Sea Saint as a benefit effort. She’d come back around to Toussaint once more.

Their duet “Bring It On Home To Me” was a top iTunes seller in 2007, both in the U.S. and in Japan. Three albums later, Gaudet revisits that successful formula on Solid, her seventh full-length release. Toussaint contributes “Storyville,” “Go Girl Go” and “It Stopped.” Named for a turn-of-the-last-century red-light district in New Orleans, “Storyville” opens with a bawdy trumpet blast by Jim Seeley that sets a high-stepping tone for this fun story song. Drummer Eric Johnson and bassist Nate Stevens add a loping beat that strongly recalls the best moments from Toussaint’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame career, notably “Mother-In-Law.” Meanwhile, “Go Girl Go,” pushed along by a tick-tock piano signature from John Zych, echoes Gaudet’s own inspirational journey from the Deep South to the bright lights and big city stages of New York.

Gaudet flows effortlessly out of these grease-popping grooves into more contemplative numbers like “Waterfall of Tears” and “Free Life.” The first sounds at times like a mainstream crossover record in the style of Faith Hill, while the second echoes the sweetly empowering R&B of Donna Summer. “Finding My Soul” could be a 1970s-era groove-band jam, while Gaudet brilliantly updates the familiar slow-jam template for brokenhearted lament on “Mad as Hell” with a vocal that’s laced with wintry shimmer. This kind of compartmentalized variety would seem too mannered in the hands of a less-skilled group of musicians, but Gaudet’s group pulls it off. They are just as adept at the billowing rock opener “Alice” as they are with the ethereal, Cocteau-esque “Dreaming.”

That said, what sets Solid apart remains Gaudet’s deeply felt root system back to Louisiana.
The record finds its most consistent groove in a middle passage that begins with Toussaint’s “It Stopped,” a strutting tune that emboldens Gaudet with an uncommon swagger. Her repeated verse, in the style of a great old blues, underscores a resolute tale about the last lingerings of love after a surprising betrayal. From there, Gaudet cuts loose with her own “Carnival Mardi Gras.” She can do many things well, but here Gaudet sounds like she’s having fun, too.

A polished performer, Gaudet is goosed into this hooting grocery-list of signature elements from the New Orleans culture by a swaying second-line sound straight from the streets of her hometown. For all of her successes away from him, Toussaint remains a center point, like a family dinner table, where Gaudet can be true to her unvarnished self. There’s a reason their collaborations have produced many of the creative, and commercial, highpoints in Gaudet’s career.

She’s back home again.

Album Review - (5 Stars) by Grammy® Winning, El Cerrito Records
5.0 out of 5 stars Outstading!
October 7, 2017

We are loving this album! Priceless is powerful both through the music and the lyrics. The vocals are very rocking and so are the guitars. Christina is a shinning star: Her compositions, her vocals, her guitar, and then her Productions skills are all top notch! All the musicians in this album are amazing! We love the effects that were used throughout the album. We definitely recommend this outstanding album to all our friends.

Truly priceless!
Grammy® Winner, Wouter Kellerman, Oct 11, 2017

That acoustic guitar ringing oh so clear in a brilliant contrast to the strong, searing electric guitar is truly ALL I NEED! The vocals are clear and absolutely superb. I thoroughly enjoyed the title tracks PRICELESS, LOVE IS FIRE, LOOK HERE among the others. The groove on REVOLT is out of this world with those arpeggios and another of my favorites here is FLY THE SKY. I simply love the energetic, eclectic mix with those soulful bits of emotion and feel laced in there! An album totally true to its title I must say!

Truly priceless!

A vocal powerhouse (she reminds me of Ann Wilson of Heart)! Christina really rocks with passion and her songs are so well written …she pours her emotions into every song, with tunes like Priceless and the powerful Girl Anthem to the socially conscious Revolt…she is the total package! Fantastic! https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/priceless/id1255326472

Album Review - Review By Monty Guy, Producer, Grammy® Awards

"Christina Gaudet delivers a fabulous musical effort from wire to wire with her new release entitled "Priceless". Her clear and fiery vocal performance commands attention, while it evokes excitement and amazement. Like her previous album "Wild Things", Christina captivates her listeners with an intoxicating formula created with passionately explosive vocals, exciting rock music compositions, great musicianship, and captivating recording production atmosphere.

The thirteen tracks of the album "Priceless", showcase a high-octane performance from beginning to end; with only a slight downshift to an exhilarating high throttle groove in preparation for the song "A Million Years"; a wonderful ballad about a lasting love.

The album provides material for energetic dancing pleasure. "Girl Anthem" is created with an interesting arrangement and an infectious beat. "Look Here" is expected to thrill and encourage listeners to enjoy their dance experience. The song "Revolt" shows good song structure and is boosted with an earnest delivery provided by Christina's sparklingly clear voice.

Throughout this release, Christina's voice thrills, delights, and soars with mellifluous precision; as indicated by the title track "Priceless", and the song "Diamond Light".

The original music that Christina composed is infused with artistic precision and craftsmanship provided by a complement of musicians who exhibit technical aplomb and outstanding instrumental execution. Eric Johnson is an excellent drummer, who is ably supported by the remarkable Nate Stevens on bass. Effervescent guitar embellishment is provided by guests Trevor Sewell, George Varghese, and Dave Rockower. Stoking the fires of artistic excellence is John Zych on keyboards. The band provides a sterling example of tight spectacular musicianship.

Choosing a favorite song from this fresh and exciting collection is a difficult task. "Love Is Fire", and "Heart of My Heart" evoked sensations of explosive delight and ecstatic pleasure seldom experienced in a work with so many tracks of original Rock/Pop song creations. It appears that the best thing to do is to play this collection again, to enjoy the splendor of Christina's clear, soaring, and enchanting voice with its passionate and sincere delivery; while also enjoying some great supporting rock musician expertise. Christina's work effort on this new release is spectacular and "Priceless". -
