"Press Quotes"

"Ellyn Fleming has joined the ranks of the area's leading songstresses. She can play the fiery rocker, the raspy voiced blues mama or the folksy ingenue with equal authority." Joe Longone - Worcester, MA Phoenix

"Ellyn Fleming IS the whole package, a true song smith, a knock out performer, and last but far from least, brilliant and beautiful." George Cogswell, The Fort Pierce Tribune, Florida

"This American girl and her backing band The Inmates are the latest new female fronted AOR/Melodic Pop/Rock band on the scene....Musically she sounds like a cross between Pat Benetar and Heart." Strutter'Zine Website

"The Whole CD ("Lost In The Fire") is an in your face chunk of ladyrock, featuring loads of catchy hard rockers...that goes to show, the girls can rock hard just as well as the guys." Nicky Baldrain - Spin City Magazine

"It may have been her belly button which got us to give this compact disc a spin, but it is her MUSIC, which earned this review. 'Everything' is an upbeat track, a tight and polished display of distorted guitar and thumping bass & drums. You hear it twice and it becomes part of you. It's catchy as hell. Throughout the album, the trio deftly winds its way through material with roots in many styles, including blues, funk, and main stream rock & roll band like HEART.", Patrick Fealey - Narragansett Times

"Ellyn Fleming's latest Rock incarnation CRANKS!", Mark Edmonds - Worcester, MA Phoenix.

"When one first meets Ellyn Fleming, one encounters a very soft spoken, sweet, almost shy woman, who you would never believe is an exceptionally emotional performer. Yet once Ms. Fleming takes the stage - WOW! FIRE!", Jim Fay - North East Performer Magazine.

"Whether on stage or on record, Fleming has no qualms about being herself - her powerful, confident voice and often sensual lyrics invite you to come up close and peer into her soul." Joe Longone - The Worcester, MA Phoenix.

"Fleming's stance is that of a blonde James Dean and when she sings switchblades & silk scarves come to mind. She can make you feel like a voyeur, and if your not one, you might feel yourself blush at her honesty", Patrick Fealey - "Time Out/Art's & Entertainment" (Dist.)South County, RI
""Ellyn Fleming is a first class strutter and her tight energetic vocals and guitar playing are more than ably backed by some serious bass work from Greg Lioce and league of his own Drummer Artie Dennis", Cliff Garboden - Worcester, MA Phoenix Editor.
This newer stuff really kicks and Ellyn can play with the best of them on guitar. She seems to be the type of performer that can catch the audience and real them in.", Chris Hinkley - New England Rocks Magazine.
"You know about her crafty songwriting, hot rock and great voice, but if you have not seen Ellyn Fleming and her band in person you're missing out! What are you waiting for!" Alan Benson - Worcester, MA Phoenix
"Fleming has a great knack for mixing sassy tunes with thoughtful ones to make a complete package." Scott McLenahan - Worcester, MA Telegram & Gazette

"An artistic triumph! The material is smart enough to show some hard introspection and honest enough to confront life's dysfunctions with confessional courage" Joe Longone - Worcester, MA Phoenix
"Original, Innovative, Entertaining! The Ellyn Fleming Band is ready to 'HAPPEN'!", Sylvia Stoun Mureddu, President, Newport Federation of Musicians, Local 529, American Federation of Musicians - Various
