Colorado's acoustic music scene . - Rocky Mountain Bullhorn


"Entertains"

Vicki Pompea entertains the crowd. - Windsor Beacon


"Unique Lyrics"

Unique and interesting lyrics... You are truly a fresh and original lyric writer. - Taxi: The Independent A&R Leader


"Crowd Pleaser"

Vicki is a delightful crowd pleaser, constantly enticing audiences with stories and jokes that bring our attention to the joys of everyday life and drawing children and families into her playful world of simplicity and playful introspection. Her set always seem to end too soon, way before we're ready for the happy ride to end. - Larry Holgerson - Event Coordinator Summer Holistic Fair 2007


"Warm & Welcoming"

Having Vicki Pompea as a featured monthly performer was a wonderful addition to my coffee and ice cream shop here in Fort Collins. With her warm and welcoming style, and variety of music, she attracted a wide range of customers to stay and listen - and of course come back the next time she was on the schedule. She made everyone who listened feel they that they are part of her family for that evening... - Jim Beikler, Owner - Mocha Bay Company, Fort Collins, CO


"Weaves a Basket of Delights"

Vicki Pompea makes you feel right at home. Her easy style and gentle smile welcome you to her gig as though she were inviting you into her living room for a casual evening of singing by the fireplace. In a seemingly effortless fashion, she weaves a basket of delights for a variety of musical tastes, ranging from pure folk, to folk-rock, to country-rock. Her alto voice is somewhat reminiscent of Joan Baez, but with a softer and gentler delivery, and clear tones. - Debbie Bidwell


"Honest, Organic, & Refreshing"

This cd is like a collection of favorite poetry. Return to it again and again when you need a little lift, a good cry, or a reminder that being 'real' is what it's all about. As honest, organic and refreshing as the woman herself, this album will take you on a very gentle rollercoaster of emotion, and bring you safely back home, still smiling at amazing ride. - Dru Van Doren

Bio

Vicki is a late bloomer who became a professional musician after many years of living room picking. She has been called "a female John Denver" and peppers her performances with stories and humor.

She is a songwriter's writer and performer. Excellent lyrics, intelligent musings and humorous observations are her trademark.

Vicki grew up playing cello, singing in church, and listening to Broadway showtunes. None of which seem to influence her music. But she has been influenced by John Prine, John Denver, Nanci Griffith, Bill Staines, CSN (and sometimes Y) and David Wilcox.
