“Need to start a fire at your club, or festival, or event? Just bring in "Miss Spontaneous Combustion" Lea Gilmore. When this goddess of blues, soul, and gospel performs, sparks fly! Keep your fire hose handy, 'cause the flames keep breaking out long after Lea has left the premises!”

- The Commander, 91.3 fm WLVR Bethlehem, Lehigh University Radio

“Praise the Lord for Lea Gilmore! For her voice; for her attitude; for her kindness; for her authenticity; for her fight; for her pain; for her musical love, luggage & all roundness; for her multicultural engagement. Give her and peace a chance. In your club. Anywhere! You won't regret it. “

- Bart De Smedt, Candelaershuys- Brussels, Belgium

Lea Gilmore can sing it all....blues, spirituals, jazz, folk, old-time, gospel...you name it. I have seen her move audiences to their feet, bring them to tears and put smiles on their faces. She has the gift of a great voice and uses it with care, grace and power, reminding us that the person behind the voice is the bottom line."

- Walt Michael, Artistic Director, Common Ground on the Hill and the American Music and Arts Festival
