“"Faith has an expansively dynamic vocal range … Her background in composition and classical voice training as well as Black Studies ... compels her to cover a full range of music ... Faith's explorations into ethnomusicology bring a buoyant flavor to her music ... reminiscent of Stevie Wonder."” - Will Zink
