A small sampling of reviews for "Yelling at Mary"

"Karlzen never sounds like an imitator; she seems more like the equal of Sheryl Crow and Nanci Griffith. If you listen closely, in fact, you'll find that Karlzen rocks harder and more infectiously than her better known colleagues" - GEOFFREY HIMES - Washington Post

"This refreshing major-label debut is a polished work of folk-tinged rock. - DAVID ELLIS - People Magazine

"A powerful major-label debut from a woman whose voice and songwriting display a beguiling mix of grit and grace, cynicism and childlike wonder" - Billboard Magazine

"What really pulls Karlzen out from the parade of hopeful newcomers is her lyrics" - MIRIAM LONGINO - Atlanta Journal Constitution

"Chicago native Mary Karlzen is not typical of other singer-songwriters. The wicked adventure of her soprano sets her apart from the hippie laced loops of her colleagues" - DAVE HOEKSTRA - Chicago Sun Times

    This CD is truely a joy to listen to... as all of Mary's music is. The "faves" that jump out for me are; "Everybody's Sleeping", "Wooden Man" and "Another Town, Another Place". However the album is one of those that you can just play right through over and over again and not tire of!!
