SONGS FROM A DEAD MAN'S
COUCH (2006)
“Kristy was one of my favorite interviews this year.
Way more comments about her than say, our coverage of Iraq.”
-Ira Glass, Host of Public Radio International’s
This American Life
“Her voice has a timeless quality to it and whatever
setting she places it into…like a hot hand in the
small of your back leading you to the dance floor, you are
powerless to resist.”
-David Cowling, Americana UK, the largest resource for
Americana in the UK
“She has grown into one of the most eclectic singers
in Dallas…Imagine a female Tom Waits, produced by
Daniel Lanois.”
-Thor Christensen, The Dallas Morning News
“We can’t get enough of the dark country-folk
on Dallas singer Kristy Krüger’s new CD…Krüger
shines brightest on Dark Stranger, with its hypnotic blend
of hard-driving country and transient electronica.”
-Hunter Hauk, The Quick, a product of The Dallas Morning
News
“...A heavy-lidded Dallas Americana songstress with
the vox and gumption to remake Depeche Mode's ‘Never
Let Me Down Again’ as a bluegrass rambler.”
-Chris Gray, The Austin Chronicle
“Far from a typical self-released set…A startlingly
mature work, full of whispered secrets and quiet affections.”
- Darryl Smyers, The Dallas Observer

AN
UNAUTHORIZED GUIDE TO THE HUMAN ANATOMY (2004)
"Psychedelic Folk Pop."
-Mario Tarradell, The Dallas Morning News, Dallas, Texas
“A genre crashing wonder, a multi-layered work of
aural art that holds up to and actually demands repeated
listens.”
-Steve Carter, Dallas Modern Luxury Magazine, Dallas,
Texas
"The real heart of ‘Anatomy’ lies in Krüger's
knack for memorable lyrics and melodies, her careful evocative
vocals and smart contemporary arrangements."
-Keith Spera, The Times Picayune, New Orleans, Louisiana
"Kristy Krüger is cool...She sings 'I Got My
Back' with the quiet confidence of someone who actually
does."
-Alex Rawls, The Gambit, Alternative Weekly Press, New
Orleans, Louisiana
“Lyrically mature without losing any of the positive
quirkiness that marked her first two recordings, and musically
sophisticated without bleeding over into excess.”
-Tom Geddie, Buddy Magazine, The Original Texas Music
Magazine, Dallas, Texas

THE
NOISE I MAKE (2000)
“Kristy is one of Dallas’ best.”
–Acoustic Musicians Network, Dallas, Texas
“An artist with a sense of humor and obvious talent.”
–Buddy Magazine, Dallas, Texas
“On The Noise I Make, this folk-rock singer/songwriter
carefully uses her lyrics to capture snapshots of her everyday
observations and experiences. With her jazzy nuances, it’s
unfair to compare her to other female folk stars.”
-The Metro, The Silicon Valley’s Weekly Newspaper,
San Jose, California

BACHELOR
OF APATHY (1998)
“Her vocals recall such modern luminaries as the
jazz diva Diana Krall, the same DIY-itiveness and alterna-folk
of Ani DiFranco and the sultry swing of Save Ferris’
Monique Powell. Kristy’s the Rickie Lee Jones of the
20somethings. If that’s not a scorching hot concoction,
I’m stumped as to what is.”
–Pot Pourri and Roses, Los Angeles, CA
“I bought this album from Kristy in 1998 and after
hearing the album once straight-through, I was hooked. Every
song is different showing her talent and versatility of
styles. It's a must get. There's nothing that I can say
about this album that isn't praiseworthy.”
-Matt Fleishman, Los Angeles, CA
