	Campus Circle: 9-3-97 (U.S.A.)
	"Terran has a unique musical gift. With her words as well as her music, she conveys a mixture of grace and rage, which is at times unsettling. However, it is this strange juxtapostion of moods that makes Terran's work so powerful. And on that warm July night in West Hollywod, Terran proved once again that she has become a force to be reckoned with."

	SB Independent: 8-28-97 (U.S.A.)
	"Jennifer's range, tone and passionate approach make evenings with her unforgettable. Her stories ache beautifully and offer a map to our lost emotional geography. She shines."

	Buzz Magazine: 7-25-97 (U.S.A.)
	**** (Four Stars) "Terran does the Tori Amos/Paula Cole acoustic piano, philosophical, tortured-chick thing - but without the drama, the shrieking or the pretense." CLICK HERE TO HEAR WHAT JEN HAS TO SAY ON THE SUBJECT

	Pick of the Week in Santa Barbara: 6-19-97 (U.S.A.)
	"Jennifer Terran: She's been described as everything from a young Joni Mitchell to a wide-eyed town freak. Her songs are sometimes poignant, sometimes whimsical and always captivating. Plus you have to love it when she sings about Trader Joe's."

	SB Independent: 5-15-97 (U.S.A.)
	"A show at Toe's recently featuring Jennifer Terran and Elliot Smith, reinvented my perspective about bands on the fringe. I mean, it's extremely easy to dress up in skater duds and rage. That's popular music... Listening to these performers was like having a story read to you by your best friend, with the rain pouring down outside and the old radiator hissing in the corner."

	Music Connection: 5-11-97 (U.S.A.)
	"If Amos and Cole can be a hit, this certainly can as well. "

	Whole Life Times: 5-97 (U.S.A.)
	"Terran's voice is both structured and soulful…and each song is more joyfully painful than the last…"

	The Fish Rap Live: 3-5-97 (U.S.A.)
	"Jennifer Terran is a musician that follows no rules. Cruel is the debut effort by this Santa Barbara based artist, and it is a damn fine display of creative freedom at its best. Listening to Cruel was an orgasmic auditory experience."

	L.A. Weekly: 4-4-97 (U.S.A.)
	"You know what's scary about singing? It comes directly out of a person, which implies that it directly represents that person. Hardly anybody has enough guts to do that… Jennifer Terran sounds as if her singing might be herself…Terran happens to possess a remarkable soprano, and a level of control equal to that of a young Joni Mitchell."

	Telegram Tribune: 1-23-97 (U.S.A.)
	"Terran has a voice and style very much her own. Her piano-based art folk really seemed to turn the crowds on."

	SB Independent: 1-9-97 (U.S.A.)
	"Jennifer Terran and her remarkable voice will be on KCRW's 'Morning Becomes Eclectic' on Thursday, January 9th…Tune in to hear one of Santa Barbara's most original singer-songwriters."

	New Times/ San Luis Obispo: 1-16-97 (U.S.A.)
	"DIVA: Her voice is so strikingly beautiful, that I would be happy to sit back and listen to it a cappella."
