"Drought comes up anything but dry." - Margaret Moser, The Austin Chronicle (Drought)

"Quite a few women have traveled the roads paved by Lucinda Williams, seldom do they get to the heart of the matter like Christy Hays."  -Jim Caligiuri, The Austin Chronicle

"O' Montana (is) simply lovely." - Laurie Gallardo, KUTX Austins

"There’s seriousness, intensity and a level of artistry to her songs and her live performances." - Bozeman Magazine

"Polished like knotted floorboards worn smooth by decades of boot heels..." - Bucket Full of Nails

"Folk shuffles and country twinges pang alongside Hays' acoustic plucking and a voice that effortlessly wavers between effervescence and quiet longing." - Zach Schepis, NYC Break Thru Radio


"Roaring with urgency and buzzing with honesty, “How It Feels” is the newest single from Austin’s Christy Hays, and her voice sounds electric – jagged but warm, tough and controlled, and shot through with meaning and emotion. Combined with the sharp and majestic guitar sound and rhythmic strength it’s as impressive and powerful as a thunderstorm." - The Autumn Roses
