"Discovering Artists"

“Attention those who like female vocalists - this is one to hear…Rattner isn't afraid to let her vocals soar with brutally honest lyrics and the piano chords to back them up”
- -Discovering Artists


"Northeast Intune"

"Jamie is a perfect example of the injustice of the music industry because she is gifted and unsigned...I think that she sure as hell deserves to be."

- Mark Staudte


"Music Emissions"

“[Her music is inspired by] the dark side of things [though] I think Rattner has a bright future ahead of her…she’ll have a great career.”
- Dennis Scanland


"HipChickZine"

“Obviously, [Jamie Rattner] is incredibly talented. The album [Within] opens with the wonderful song "Numb" (my personal favorite), and then follows with "Elementary," which is a prime example of how well a piano, guitar and catchy rock rhythm complement each other.”

- Jo


"Splendid E-Zine"

“The first thing you'll notice about Jamie Rattner is her voice. Forceful and sweeping,with an impressive range at her disposal, Rattner's vocal delivery commands attention. ...It's clear that Rattner has all the necessary tools of greatness at her disposal, namely an incredible voice, skilled musicianship, and beautifully composed songs"

- Melissa Amos


"British Press Association"

"Young, wise, and surprisingly articulate, you would pay for a glimpse of
her perspective." - Emma Jo Manley


"Best Female Musicians"

with her voice and her instrument and keep you listening, Jamie does just this." - Dennis Halsey


"Collected Sounds"

"If you can't get enough of unique piano music that's on the quirky edge of pop give Jamie Rattner a try"
- Amy Lotsberg


"Glittergrrls"

"Forget the phone bill, buy this at any cost!...This unique and fabulous performer delivers an amazing debut album; one that can't afford to be missed." - Megan K.
