“You can say a band is ear-catching, but it’s hard to prove scientifically. So when I say Sari Schorr’s second album, Never Say Never, is positively engrossing, it’s understandable if you’re skeptical.

And upon hearing it, it caused her to stop and ask “Who is this?” – Blues Rock Review
“Never Say Never has easily taken the title of blues album of the year for me. This will collect awards en masse and there will never be enough awards to cover what this album deserves. This will make sure everyone stands up and takes notice. Those hard miles and long hours will be paid in kind, for each performance, each conversation and picture with fans has gone into this release. This is the proverbial blood, sweat and tears and the outcome is modern blues brilliance.” – Jace Media

Every show from this amazing artist comes always with everything and even more you may possibly expect from a concert. It is not just the notoriously thunderous and impressive quality of Schorr's vocals or the depth of emotional intensity that constantly emerge from her songs but there is also a unique human factor that shines through any of Sari Schorr's live performances, something that put the American artist always on a higher pedestal in comparison to other artists.” – Blue Bird Reviews
