The best kept secret in music
Press
"chicken soup for the self empowered soul"
"...Rebronja's glass-smooth, heavenly voice..."
"The old-country textures in "Duso Moja"and "Zasto" keep the disc grounded." - Shawn Conner, The Georgia Staright
" Wonderwall sounds like the love song it is meant to be." - Chad Nevett, The Gazette
"...most of Rebronja's lyrics are quite syrupy sweet, but her music comes complete with a hard edge."
- Jaclyn Arndt, Soulshine
"This album does what good music should do - make us see old, familiar love in a new way. Vancouverite Melissa Rebronja has a passion for describing ordinary things that are ultimatelly connected to la vie and l'amour. She is compelling, especially on "Duso Moja" & "Zasto" - Christine Estima, Chartattack
"You don't see enough Slavic singer/songwriters these days"
"Rebronja has a solid voice and it's a well produced album. "
"... many others couldn't hold a candle to Madame Rebronja."
"... bonus points for including a very sparse rendition of the Oasis hit "Wonderwall" - it's the type of reclamation that would piss the Gallagher brothers right off."
- Cameron Gordon, The SPILL
