"Eliza Wren Payne is simply a star." Sue Popper, Joogleberry Playhouse.
"Eliza Wren Payne – an American singer captivating audiences with her sweeping voice and striking stage presence." Hit sheet .co.uk
"It’s American Eliza Wren Payne who steals the day though, drawing stunned silence with her first song. Using her guitar only to tap a beat, her vocal range and control is mesmerizing, her song writing assured. One to watch for in the future for sure." Dominic Kos, Secret Garden Festival Review, virtualfestivals.com
"Eliza Wren Payne lets her face drop and pain seep from her soul as she sings a somebody-done-her-wrong song. Or she twists her lips into a full-mouth grin and winks an eye as she belts out a happy ending. New Year’s Eve revelers had the opportunity to experience Payne’s harmonic, in-the-moment honesty, and as she sings from her heart and gut, her audiences know one thing. She’s no phony." Amy Schoon, The Standard Examiner
"The intimate feel was continued with the next act, a singer and songwriter from Utah called Eliza Wren Payne. Eliza sang with a delicacy and strength that was truly touching. Her style was evoked memories of early Ani Di Franco in her pure tones that carried a very exposed and personal feel with her precisely clipped vocals that draw the ear expertly to the important phrases. Unfortunately, the busy line up only allowed her a couple of numbers. However, those songs she played showed such a great individual talent I can’t believe it will be long before her name will be well known indeed." http://www.betweenplanets.co.uk
"Singer/song writer Eliza Wren Payne's creativity oozes out of evey pore - she sings, she dances, she creates fabulus artwork. Her style is laid back soulful jazz, her voice massages the ears, bathing them with sensual delight. Delicate and strong, simple yet complex. Wonderful stuff." Neil Fairbrother, Pod3.tv
"Eliza Wren Payne stepped up next - and my god, when I come back I want this girl's legs and talent. She is funny, quirky and her musical talent is something to boggle your mind. Her voice is light and airy with a range that astounds. Her songs, all written by her, carry a unique wistful quality that makes your eyes water. She stood there, her posture ramrod straight, guitar slung across her like shoulder, gave the audience this quirky grin and set off to entertain. Listening to her, I realised that Songbirds is doing something truly unique, showcasing talented young female artists. The exposure these young women are getting is increasing their profile in the music industry and slowly but surely they will make it big. We bought a copy of Eliza's 7 song album for a fiver and drove home listening to it. It is as funky and fun as she is, as quirky and a perfect "noise" for a cold winters evening. It was great." lizzysmusings.blogspot
