Press Quotes

"Cosmopolitan singer songwriter… draws from the experiences of a life lived on remote Scottish islands, in European capitals & on the LA club scene, to create a beguiling hybrid of ambient beats, experimental electronics & vocalising rooted in 40's jazz… erotically-charged percolations… this is a luscious piece of work." 
~ Johnny Black, Q Magazine 

"('Songs for Birdman') a curious album... makes great listening."  ~ Flux Magazine, UK 

"...superb Chill-out..." ('Songs for Birdman' - album of the month) ~ Sunday Post, UK 

"Very romantic, blessed with a superb, pure voice…second to none."
~ Caledonia Magazine, UK 

"('Songs for Birdman')...a delightful trip hop-influenced collection of songs... 'Moonrope' has Gordon sounding like a jazz singer while the beats are buzzing round like bees... 'The Healing' circles Gordon's vocals in a Cocteau Twins-like fashion, while the backing is more soulful... 'Forbidden Fruit' is hauntingly sensual & has a faint touch of Björk's latest work..."  ~ Anna Maria Stjärnell, Collected Sounds, US
