"Ellen Whyte & Reflex Blue worked with Robert Cray producer, Dennis Walker to create their third disc ... Whyte's clear delivery ... handles rockers like "Let's Get Right With Love" successfully and writes lyrics that scrupulously avoid blues tropes. Standing At The Sunrise (self-release) spins from humid New Orleans second-line rhythms to late-night, minor-key city grooves without missing a beat, incorporating Latin elements and icebreaking funk. Crisp horns and a versatile rhythm section account for much of the excitement, while Garry Meziere's guitar work shows that tasteful playing need not be timid."
