"Review: Lucid Dreaming High"

"The quality of songwriting, musicianship, Mica Lee's remarkable voice, and the production quality of this CD distort my mental image of a first release. This disc sounds like years of craft blending rock, folk, blues, alt country and working-finger-to-the-bone road-tested effort. Perhaps Mica Lee has worked harder at her endeavors than most? As I listen to this disc again after completing this review I realize the depth of skill and passion Mica Lee Williams has poured into this debut release. I envy those in San Francisco who can listen to her regularly at gigs around the Bay area--you are very fortunate people."

- Steve Ekblad, AudioGrid


"Review: Lucid Dreaming High"

"This lady sings with an attitude and her performance on this CD is just fantastic. “Lucid Dreaming High” her new release spans the musical gamut. Songs she wrote vary with each track from hard roots rock to slow and magical folk to one track with a driving country flavor. This album has everything a winning release could ever offer."
- Roots Music Report


"Review: Lucid Dreaming High"

"An album with heart and one of the best albums I have heard this summer, a triumph of pop sensibilities and independent design...memorable songwriting, extremely catchy and highly enjoyable."

- Samuel Aaron, Lead Reviewer, Allalom.com


"Review: Lucid Dreaming High"

"Mica Lee Williams has the right ingredients to be a successful singer/songwriter. She's well traveled, down to earth, and talented. The influence of blues, rock, and country throughout her songs stand to take her far and it gives her an edge so many singer songwriters lack."

- Paul Zimmerman, First Coast News


"Fan Review: Lucid Dreaming High"

"Listening to this album I get the definite sense that I'm witnessing a future legend just as her wave is beginning to form. Mica walks alot of fine lines and takes alot of risks. While her talents are many, (yes, her voice is great and songwriting both unique and varied), Mica's rarest gift is that of an attitude which likens her to her self proclaimed idol, John Lennon. Her songs all share an unapologetic emotional honesty and yet remain sublimely beautiful, uplifting, hopeful and ultimately human with all the paradoxes that infers. Beauty and despair, agony and ecstasy and embracing all that life offers. Old soul? Maybe, but the thought "NEXT BIG THING" easily comes to mind." - fifiouioui, CD Baby


"Review: Lucid Dreaming High"

"A good songwriter. She has the laid back fields meets beach scene, a bit of Crowe, a bit of Baez, a smidge of hippie, a glance at things Native." - Underground Reviews


"Fan Review: Northwest Tour, Live and CD"

"I bought Mica's CD at a live show in Eugene, Oregon and have been loving it ever since... At a live show she really connected with her audience on a personal level and made us want to know her. She has an outstanding vocal delivery and presence live and she smokes on the acoustic guitar (my friends and I were having guitar playing envy). Anyway, check her out live, buy this CD and support this artist. She's a true gem of a human being and a heck of a talented lady to boot. I can't wait for her second album..."
- Christian, CD Baby


"Review: 4-Song Sampler"

"Mica Lee Williams is a talented singer working primarily in the pop/rock genre but with a twang to her voice that occasionally feels like country or blues. Her vocals sound relaxed even as she sears the microphone with her tales of wandering the road and following her dreams...angelic visions cascade from Mica's lips. Her voice is sweet and fresh. She has all the energy of an artist early in her career but more polish than might be expected from one just starting out."
- Pat Duggan, West Coast Performer


"Live Review: Komasket Music Festival"

"Obviously comfortable whether playing on a street corner or on a stage in front of drenched music worshippers... mixing the guitar-playing savvy of Ani Di Franco with the songwriting genius of Joni Mitchell...with her sweet voice to make the music distinctly hers."
- By Kristin Froneman - Arts Editor- Vernon Morning Star


"Live Review: GreenBeat Songwriter Showcase"

"At our June showcase the audience was awestruck by Mica's silky smooth voice and impassioned guitar playing." - Trevor Justice, AcousticSongwriters.com
