'A disarming songstress...'

'Earthy, grounded and honest...Humphreys holds similar visual qualities to an old antique book on the shelf of a second hand book store: she doesn't do much but her stillness encourages the watcher to pay attention to the words within. Luckily they're worth paying attention to.'

'Humphreys plays it open and intimate.'

Bernard Zuel, Sydney Morning Herald
'On her 2008 release 'Teapot Trees and Love Birds', Humphreys sounds like a beautiful concoction of Missy Higgins and Clare Bowditch tinged with soul, sensuous pop and folk.... Tonight, however, as the very engaged audience heard, Humphreys blew the comparisons out of the water, proving she is her own artist. Her seamless performance included April, the poignant Just The Way We Were and the gorgeous saunter of Things That You Don't Say, all sung in fine form, her vocals executed to perfection. Occasionally peering out from beneath her thick fringe, Humphreys delivered with confidence and passion....her songs bursting with originality, beauty, flair and intrigue through her wise words... She is being touted as the singer to watch in 2008 and I wouldn't disagree for a moment.'

'A down to earth, barefoot Sarah Humphreys played the same stage and has equal response from the crowd, humbly showing off an amazing vocal talent that guaranteed no vacant chairs. The thing that impressed me most about Sarah apart from her clear ability to write and sing a great tune, was that her Australian accent stood out.'
