“Lili is the Jimi Hendrix of the violin.” -- George Clinton

"The show opens and closes with sound direct from God through the

amazing Lili Haydn. Her violin and her voice combined to utterly and

totally mesmerize the audience. Her performance...was nothing short of

pure magic." --Examiner.com

"Ms Haydn approaches and reaches the ecstatic, lifting the audience literally to heights seldom experienced." ---On Stage Los Angeles

"...the incredible violinist and singer Lili Haydn literally blew away

the public and can understandably be called the Lady Hendrix of the

violin."

--Hollywoodtoday.net

"Haydn has a voice so sublime that it is truly like the fifth string

of her virtuoso violin." - Paper Magazine

"A mix of neo-psychedelic flower child and rock star

virtuoso...Heifetz meet Hendrix."  -NPR Review

"Courageously intimate with her audience, Haydn lays into her violin

as if it's a wild animal only she can bring to heel.  The effect is an

emotional magic show...a party of sound...electronica beat, lyrical

strings, ethereal voice, and words that resonate in the battered

chamber of the human soul."  - L.A. Weekly

 "Lili amazed her audience...tossing her raven curls like the rock

star she is...her performance was electrifying."  - Women Who Rock

QUOTES about Lili’s forthcoming CD, LiliLand from celebrated producers:

"Unique, creative, moving, bold, sonically beautiful and really

fucking clever.... I love this record for its passion, craftsmanship,

& honesty. I would go on this ride again & again & again..."   -

Linda Perry (P!NK, Christina Aguilera and Gwen Stefani)

" Lili manages to mix Kate Bush with modern influences to make a

beautifully unique sound based around her amazing violin skills and

soulful voice."

 ---Steve Lillywhite

"I really like the spareness of it, and the content…the strong thread

of mid-60's Haight-Ashbury aggression and looseness to it all,

informed by beat making grooves  (with some classical influence : )).   All the different feels, from Russian folk to Carnival to Flamenco to hiphop, and beyond.  Your voice sounds really great...dark and rich.    I also

really like This Is A Moment....   Great programming and movement.

Love  I Am A Man, and the way it goes into a sort of funeral/gospel song.     Tyrant was one of my faves, esp the line about not knowing the

cost of freedom until you're free…great!"

-- David Kahne
