Professional Reviews

Rolling Stone (No. 966, p.61) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[S]hows off the Chicago indie country girl's endearing bag of sounds...[the originals] sound beamed in from some long-lost AM radio station."

Spin (p.123) - "[L]ike her hero Loretta Lynn, she's the good girl who done got complex." - Grade: B

Entertainment Weekly (pp.122-25) - "Part torched twang, part blue-eyed soul, Case's voice vaults impressively over pedal steel, banjo, and assorted countrified six-strings..." - Grade: A

Uncut (p.150) - 4 stars out of 5 - "TIGERS is a leave-them-gagging-for-more whirlwind, and confirmation that, at 34 and with three albums behind her, Case still has tantalizingly wide-open game plan for her future."

Alternative Press (p.108) - "[D]elivered with the intensity of a blast furnace....Packing a punch as sweet and warm as a shot of whiskey." - 4 out of 5

CMJ (p.4) - "Live CDs this honest grow harder to find by the day...it's rare that tigers speak so eloquently."

Mojo (Publisher) (p.114) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[O]ne of Americana's most exquisite singers..."
