"Fine playing and vocals throughout make this a well put together album of mostly self-penned material I’m so glad I placed on my player I feel calmed and refreshed all at once. Give this a chance and you just might find the album irresistable"

One Eye On The Highway

Now a bright cover with a girl in an open top car with a guitar on the back seat in open country makes you breath a sigh, hummingbirds on the back of the cover and floral tapestry inside change the aspect a bit but let’s put the disc on shall we! A lovely slide intro to the opening title song One Eye On The Road and a country tinged vocal intrigue immediately. Easy paced and with a strong chorus this hits the mark and makes you want more and to even join in! NICE start. Great car song. Elizabeth has a fine voice that moves between Country and Blues very well and has warmth and power as needed. We move on to a little more country style that sure makes ya feet tap along very nicely indeed. Someone is features a plaintive violin and pleading vocals that are moving. For me the high spot is Love’s Got Rhythm & Blues as it strides in with a loping blues/country feel and a song that fits equally in both camps, great band work all round on this, loved it. That’s What Momma Always Said is a retrospective lyric that is both positive and sad at the same time and many will be able to identify with (This song is repeated unplugged at track 11 to close this set). Did I Touch You picks up the beat and the violin floats across a strong backing before Only Kidding steps back into Blues territory more strongly and Elizabeth’s vocal has a strangely calm but burning edge to it, spooky at times, strong song. Fine playing and vocals throughout make this a well put together album of mostly self-penned material I’m so glad I placed on my player I feel calmed and refreshed all at once. Give this a chance and you just might find the album irresistable

Elizabeth MacInnis

This is my introduction to Canadian-born country music singer Elizabeth MacInnis. I understand that she has a wealth of experience in performance as a backing singer and in musical theatre. This album “One Eye On The Highway” indicates a very pleasant, personable style laced with a sense of humour and some circumspect lyrics. As a debut album the songs are very well crafted but it will be interesting to gauge the reaction as it is a difficult thing to come out of the shadows of being a behind-the-scenes performer and raising the bar out front. I don't know of Elizabeth's stage presence but the North American audiences usually show enough faith in this type of music to give her a chance. The usual; elements of country bluesy songs resonate throughout the eleven tracks so she should be able to attract good interest. This isn't the sort of music I personally like but when you judge the recording on the potential audience in North America, it could be the start of Elizabeth forging her own career to good extent. The fact that she is working with notable people in the genre will give her the belief that she can succeed as a solo artist. The passion and vocal strength is certainly there in this album. - MediaSearch,AU

Elizabeth always says 'My style of music is music with soul'.
