Description

PRESS on Sun in Mind

"...Bells and Whistles is a sunny, galloping example of Hunter's gift for folk-jazz-indie synthesis, with lyrics detailing the glorious, grounding smells, sounds, and sights of a home, attended by a fluttering of bright saxophone and faint, old-fashioned background vocals...."
- Stefanie Kalem, East Bay Express

...'Lately I've been calling myself a '60s-infused folk-pop singer-songwriter,' Sonya laughs. That's certainly accurate--her folk sensibilities and ear for perfect turns of phrase are evident, and the album's uptempo numbers have hooks that stay with you for days...From the buttery, upright bass that kicks off the album's first track, Aquamarine, to the cool, night-sky feel of Dance, there are moments of longing, hesitation, or looking back, but they're bridged on all sides by colors, sounds, and details from nature so vivid they're liable to drive you out of doors."
- Heather Seggel, Metroactive

"Hunter -- who is ably seconded by multi-instrumental sidekick Erik Pearson -- is a beautiful singer whose lyrics bounced off her pop-hook smarts and right into the very air we were trying to breathe. I remember feeling lucky that I had this CD to listen to for the rest of my life."
- Matt Cibula, Ink 19

"...Like the music itself, her voice is hard to describe (It reminds me of toasted hazelnuts.) It lies somewhere in between the edginess of Kristen Hersh and the sweet pitch of Tanya Donnelly...Sun in Mind is more thoroughly produced than her previous efforts, but the songs still feel intimate and spontaneous--gratifying instantly, then lingering deliciously in the memory."
- H.S., bitch

"...On her sixth album Sun in Mind, (Hunter) uses her love of jazz and her access to some of its alternatives players to infuse her folky and spacey leanings with a twist of cool."
- Denise Sullivan, Contra Costa Times

"Smooth intellectual pop delivered by a passionate heart with an appealing touch of luminous melancholy."
- j. poet, Contributing Editor of Pulse


* Mini-Bio *
This Northern California-raised singer-songwriter's dedication to the craft is chronicled in her steadily growing discography that began in 1991 with "Favorite Short Stories." In addition to performing throughout the U.S. and regularly in her Bay Area stomping grounds, she has toured Europe widely with the German label release of her titles. Hunter relocated to New York City in '98, and then returned to San Francisco for the new millennium with a batch of songs (and a few recordings, too) that would soon be featured on her 2002 release "Sun in Mind."
