“At first glance, Neals’ voice shares a Janis Joplin and Etta James singing style; but her own unique and tremendous talents make her specifically superior and very, very likable.” Blues Music Magazine 2018

“The one exception would be a couple of b-b-b-b-baby moments in “You Ain’t My Dog No More.” Janis, God love her, could never quite hit those highs without falling into a primal scream. Eliza, on the other hand, not only can, but does.” American Blues Scene 2017

“Neals belts fiery electric blues ballads backed by a band that enhances her soaring vocals. She channels the spirit of the blues and the demons of rock and then performs an intense exorcism…” Detroit Free Press 2018

“The reviews she’s received would make any pop star jealous… even more impressive when factoring in that she doesn’t have a record label or management company behind her.” The Star Ledger 2018

“The surprise moment from the previous album, “Breaking And Entering”, is gone. We know she’s good and this album confirms it. And we believe in her.” Blues News Norway 2017

“Eliza Neals is a marvel. She and Glazer are a great musical pairing, but playing with so many different musicians really shows what a chameleon she is and her ability to bring out the best in the already great…” IndieBlues Making a Scene 2017

“Neals brings back the 1970s in all of its excessive beauty in “10,000 Feet Below,” with Glazer making a big guitar impression.” All About Jazz 2017

“Her attack to each song is as powerful as a steamroller can be. When she rocks, she really does so.” Bluebird Reviews 2017

“Eliza Neals is a woman of outstanding virtue who has held up the new dawn, the second coming of the genre as one that is not only powerful, rich and supple, but to whom is the perfect and natural successor to those who put recorded Blues on the map.” Liverpool Sound and Vision 2017

“Seventeen years we have had some great women vocalists perform but NOT ONE has outperformed Eliza… we have a new crowd favorite!” Pomeroy Jazz and Blues 2017

“Award winner has received the highest critical acclaim from both sides of the pond where comparisons have been made with Beth Hart and Janis Joplin.” Blues Matters Mag UK 2017

“Eliza Neals is an electrifying vocalist, and she’s gathered an all-star lineup to deliver 10,000 Feet Below, an in-your-face collection of blues-rock that’s powerful enough to knock you off your feet.” Blues Blast Magazine 2017

Neals seems to have hit paydirt with this release, a bouncing, ballsy, raucous and riotous release that is bound to propel her into the modern, rock-blues spotlight on a well-deserved basis, if this album is anything to go by. A true delight… 92/100.” Elmore Mag NY 2017

“An album of ‘hell and brimstone’ blues rock that should be tattooed on the soul of all you blues-rockers out there.” Blues in Britain 2017

“Between Beth Hart and Janis Joplin, this incredibly energetic pianist emerges at the head of a good sixteen musicians for a great album with imperceptible faults.” Soul Bag France 2017

“Eliza Neals has found her niche in songwriting and the proper backing to let her tough- as-nails voice soar above the crowd.” Big City Rhythm and Blues 2017

“Superb effort from Eliza Neals, 10,000 Feet Below is the real deal – great songs and performances from a talented artist who’s got a bright musical future ahead of her.” Blues Bytes

“Janis Joplin is Joan Baez compared to Eliza Neals. She wrote ‘em, she sings ‘em (with enough gravel in her throat to pave a highway) and produced ‘em.” Goldmine Magazine
