Greg Brown describes Berry's voice as "clear spring water gushing out of a deep place in the earth. It goes right to your heart."
Berry is an amazingly talented performer who shape-shifts from folk to jazz, from ballads to blues but the underlying constant in all her music is the conviction in her voice showing us again that her heart is right where it should be with her songs flowing right from the center.
