Chuck Southcott, Program Director, Music of Your Life Radio Network
There is no question that Barbara has learned a great deal from the masters of interpretation such as Frank Sinatra and Peggy Lee. Bobby Troup’s Daddy has been given a delightfully sensuous new life. The same goes for Sentimental Journey and My Heart Belongs to Daddy. Her take on Tain’t What You Do is equally stunning. Thank you, Barbara for Surprisingly Good for You. It’s a surprisingly good and welcome addition to the Music of Your Life.

David Hendrickson – 'The Breeze' WJUB, Milwaukie, WI
Barbara Lusch is delightful !!!!! Surprisingly Good for You is just that. From Track 1 right to the close of track 13 this CD just hums along on cruise control. With smooth beautiful Jazz singing by Barbara Lusch, this record should be a breakthrough hit that makes everyone aware of this lovely song stylist.

Enjoyed her way of presenting the songs. She has some special delivery that brings out the best of each and every song.

Phil Stout, JazzRadio Berlin, Music Choice, 2007
Barbara Lusch has raised the bar! Ms. Lusch’s second release reveals a first-class vocalist at the top of her game. ...Surprisingly Good For You is not surprisingly great.

George Fendel, Jazzscene, 2007
Barbara Lusch has made an album [Surprisingly Good For You] that is sure to please. ...Barbara Lusch brings a rare intimacy to a selection of tunes mainly from the “etched in stone” standards category.

Eric Bartels, Portland Tribune, 2007
One thing Lusch does differently involves her delivery... delivering her creamy vocals with an unusually crisp articulation that commands attention. ...Lusch’s voice coats the listener in a sheen the texture of lip gloss.

Lynn Darroch, The Oregonian, 2006
Barbara Lusch has strengths that would be the envy of any singer. ...Lusch’s clear, limpid voice... com[es] across with warmth and intimacy... ...her articulation is precise, her intonation on target.

Phil Stout, JazzRadio Berlin, Music Choice, 2006
Just when you think the crowded female vocalist category has reached the point of no return, along comes the fantastic voice of Barbara Lusch. ...This talented lady’s self-titled debut CD is a real revelation. ...a knockout from start to finish.

Jim Santella, All About Jazz, 2006
Lusch isn’t one to settle for ordinary. ...she sings with a deeply sensual vibrancy that gets right to the heart of the matter. ...One listen and you may feel as if you’ve known Barbara Lusch all your life.

Marty Hughley, The Oregonian, Arts & Entertainment, 2005
...this singer has created a solo identity that’s two parts classy, one part coy, with a splash of seduction and a twist of wit.

Barbara Mitchell, Portland Tribune, Weekend! Life, 2005
Like any good flirt, Barbara Lusch knows the value of timing, confidence, and perhaps most important, playfulness. If you’re looking for... sophisticated, classic, true entertainment, you couldn’t ask for more.

Joerg Michael Smitt, Soul Site.de Germany, 2004
...she can win over even the most casual listener with ease.

Scott D. Lewis, The Oregonian Arts & Entertainment, 2004
With her smoky mezzo-soprano singing voice that embraces Julie London’s overt sensuality, Peggy Lee’s cool, even Doris Day’s sense of playfulness, it’s not hard to get carried along by the familiar tunes filling her debut self-titled solo album. ...it’s her animated voice and the songs’ underlying meanings that give these tunes their spark.

Taisuke Sato, Swing Journal, Japan, 2004
The powerful presence felt in her performance is one of a veteran singer.

Kyle O’Brien, Jazzscene, 2004
...pure, relaxed and alluringly breathy at times. She plays the chanteuse in a retro sense, channeling a blend of voices like Peggy Lee, Billie Holiday and Rosemary Clooney...

...a delicious sense of timing, drawing the listener in like a siren, with a delivery that sways sexily behind the beat.
