"A glorious coalescence of superior songwriting, soaring vocals and stirring melodies, Don’t Look Too Close will stay with me for a lifetime, I’m sure of it."
"...a lush foray into optimism that savors and clings to life’s most beautiful moments, while also spotlighting the singer’s clear, rich vocals."
"Nashville-based artist Natalie Schlabs not only writes what she knows but conveys the meaning of an emotionally charged experience with such tender-hearted expression that it's so easy to fall in love with her songs...silky-smooth and gentle vocals possess the balmy warmth of a 1960s Dusty Springfield or Jackie DeShannon...If there was a song made for these desperate times, 'That Early Love' on repeat should start to ease the pain. Heal thyself, then let the good feelings linger."
"...personal and poignant"
“‘Go Outside’ is the perfect indie soundtrack to a summer afternoon. The airy acoustic guitars and dreamy vocals give the song a magic quality, as if it were a spell to coax you (safely!) out of wherever you've been quarantining. The delicate harmonies and swaying effects feel like a fresh breeze blowing through a field of flowers. More than anything, this song showcases the simple beauty of everyday life.”
“Schlabs’ voice possesses an audible kindness to it, that allows her to carry her performance with the calmness and sincerity necessary to portray a song crafted on the kind of love that overreaches any one type of relationship. ”
- Macie Bennet, American Songwriter
“'See What I See,' reassures people in various difficult situations that there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, even if they can’t see it at the moment."
"...lyrical sincerity with gorgeous melodies...Natalie Schlabs delivers gilded, Americana-infused sweetness in a song that feels immediately timeless"
"...brings to mind the timeless and melodic pop of the ’70s (plus some crisp Rilo Kiley-esque guitar hooks) with sweet lyrics about someone coming into your life"
“…A rugged truthfulness we often save for conversations with ourselves. Her soothing vocals enhance those honest notions.”
“Their voices ring and resound like a fork tapping crystal, warm enough to shake anyone into security.”
