"Ash Reiter is a delightful young talent with already well-developed songwriting skills. Her voice could be compared to any number of familiar names, Zooey Deschanel or Jolie Holland being the most readily available, but it is a sign of her gifts that she really doesn’t benefit from comparison to anyone. Behind her vintage, lipstick-red National, she drives familiar yet distinct pop songs in a voice that, if anything, is stronger live than on her recordings. In her smoky blend of retro pop and modernism, sincerity and ironic detachment, her music brought to mind Sondre Lerche at several points. The tuneful nature of her compositions and the balance of wit and honesty in her voice are thoroughly winning."

"Ash Reiter, a woman whose voices reminds me of how beautiful womens voices can be. She's soulful, she's honest. I cringe when lady singers are likened to Jolie Holland. The comparision is made all too often. Reiter is truly one of her own, and yes, although there are evident Holland influences... she stands on her own. The girl can croon."

"She starts singing and that’s when you’ve got to realize that she’s been illuminated, a few times over."
