American Songwriter (Evan James) TO SWEETEN UP, ALBUM REVIEW
"To Sweeten Up" is one of the most original and magnetic solo albums I've heard from a female solo artist in years. Her music is as unconventional as that of Suzanne Vega but has the pop sensibilities of U2 or The Police, which makes for quite a compelling combination. Listen to songs like "Money Retail Millionaires" or "One Day Older" and take notice of their clever lyrics, catchy choruses and adroit musicianship. Glynn is both a critic's worst nightmare and savior. Someone sign this girl..."

Austin American Statesman (Rich Malley) LUCY & THE LUCK BAND, ALBUM REVIEW
Glynn exhibits such songwriting moxie and confident command of her multi-instrumental talent that her band could be The Next Big Thing, or at least the Next Big Thing After That... The song is so catchy, the performance so accomplished, I do a "take," eyes bulging and jaw dropping

The local all-girl trio Tribella shimmers with Thirteen, 10 songs so deliciously sweet and deftly crafted with divine innocence that they're as fresh as the April mornings of late, employing Bananarama vocals with Breeders guts to deliver a solid three-star debut.
Americana UK TEXAS POWER-TRIO GET INVITING
"My Guest List" is a confident, melodic & strident opening salvo... sounding something like Interpol's charming younger sisters.
Do 512 (Mercer Black) SARAH GLYNN: SHE'S NOT FROM HERE, BUT WE'LL CLAIM HER
Two years ago Sarah Glynn, fresh out of Wellesley, considered medical school. About a one-hundred and eighty degree flip-flop later, she decided to become a singer/songwriter/musician. I'm really not sure which is the harder path... A Bostonian by way of Indiana, she is now part of a unique sound that has been described as "somewhere between U2 and Dido." Her sound is so wonderfully peculiar... my guess is that Sarah Glynn will soon be filed in your collection between G. Love and Patty Griffin.
KUT 90.5FM SONG OF THE DAY
Tribella is a brand new, all girl trio from right here in Austin, Texas. The band has crafted a sound that's a perfect blend of pop-rock and new wave, but their attention to song craft is what sets this band apart from others in the local music scene.
Austin Chronicle LIVE PICK
Fronted by a mean axe-wielder with a delicate touch named Sarah Glynn, the Luck Band needn't rely on chance to snare fans with its intricate, dual-guitar web
Austin Eavesdropper THIRTEEN, ALBUM REVIEW
Tribella has touches of '90s indie pop rocker and fellow Austinite Abra Moore, particularly in Sarah Glynn's vocals, both breathy and powerful at once... the result is an album that you'll swallow happily, but not guiltily - this is well-crafted pop. Pop you can feel good about.

Musical Discoveries (Hereford, UK) TO SWEETEN UP, ALBUM REVIEW
This is as original and unconventional female singer-songwriter album as I've come across... you find yourself smiling at the sheer audacity and exuberance of it all. You can't take your ears off this album for a moment, and no reason why you'd want to.
2bloxdc.com WASHINGTON D.C. LIVE REVIEW
This Austin, TX all-women trio admirably channel several indie pop progenitors (I won't use Liz Phair, even though it is fair!). Guitarist/singer Sarah Glynn's slick fretwork fleshing out the rhythm section's interpol-esque drive quickly puts to rest any notion that you're in for a night of some cute girls playing simple bar chord songs about how stupid boys are. These ladies are power poppers!
Smother.Net TO SWEETEN UP, ALBUM REVIEW
The modern alternative rock world hasn't seen a great female artist come around in a while and I'm pleased to say that it might be Sarah Glynn who will next make that storied climb up the charts.
