QUOTES

Hooked is playful and cool but will break your heart if you let it.
— Cathy Riches, The Wholenote
Terpsichore, the goddess of music , will have her way with us mere mortals and in the blip of time Dizzy & Fay became a creative and musical entity, noted for Fay’s smouldering sexuality and Dizzy’s magic fingers. Which brings us gliding up in a vintage Cadillac to sophomore album, Hooked. Dizzy, Fay, a killer band, a horn section and 28 strings later, Hooked is a thank you card to the American Songbook
— Lenny Stoute, BTW
There are many lovely and potent musical baubles presented here, all elegantly crafted into a compelling genre and infused with compositional talent. Make no mistake – Dizzy and Fay are highly musical tunesmiths and storytellers.
— Lesley Mitchell-Clarke for The Wholenote
...the beautiful music created by this pair should be savored as slowly and lovingly as a double shot of fine bourbon.
— Jess Lahr for Great Dark Wonder
Dizzy and Fay’s skillfully crafted songs sound like timeless classics; their combined musicianship and vocal delivery are delightfully refreshing and pleasing to the ear!
— Jill Barber
