Here is what the press has had to say... Ryan's voice is a lovely soprano instrument. Her songs have that mix of Victorian floral luxury and a post Kate Bush sense of drama that might remind you of Sarah McLachlan or Tori Amos. Wistful songs with occasional small surprises." Dan Maryon, Option Magazine "Mary's voice is an intense instrument and compliments her amazing piano style." Madalyn Sklar, GoGirlsMusic.com [Diaphanous] is "a jazz-accented collection [focusing] on Ryan's register leaping voice. It's a mostly successful formula, with Ryan recalling femm-pop heroes...such as Tori Amos and Kate Bush." Richard Martin, The Seattle Weekly Ryan is elegant and graceful with a voice that rises to dizzying heights. Tom Scanlon, The Seattle Times "Ryan's voice is a velvet pleasure, her music an easy-listening collaboration of jazz and floral tones recalling memories of Kate Bush and Enya with a modern twist of all the usual female artist suspects: Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan and the like."
