"Featuring poignant authentic lyrics and skillful piano and vocal performance...Alissa Musto has a true mastery of her craft. The way she sings is full of both control and vulnerability."
IAN MCFARLAND, Its Not Records
"What We Saw from the Piano Bar'is an amazingly well done album by a true artist and when I say the word "artist," I am referring to the highest caliber of talent, the kind of talent that has depth and merit, technical acumen (both vocal and instrumental), training, passion and originality."
BYRON HARRIS, Indie Spoonful
"Good musicians know how to make minimalism matter. Alissa Musto is among them."
TESSA ROY, Sound of Boston
"Admirers describe her as a female Elton John and the next Debbie Harry"
Limelight Magazine
"Her rich interplay of piano and vocals recalls Elton John, with a little of that balladeer influence from Springsteen coming through in her wonderfully soulful musical journey."
ROMAN KOWALSKI, JustLuxe
"It’s clear after a few (dozen) listens to What We Saw From the Piano Bar that Alissa Musto is a young performer you absolutely owe it to yourself to get to know".
GEOFF WILBUR, Geoff Wilbur's Music Blog
"Mostly piano based, with an occasional jazz feel, her sweet and melancholy voice unravels some beautiful melodies and thoughtful prose."
Shutter 16 Magazine
"Alissa describes herself as somewhat of an old soul, which is easily detected in her timeless sound. She delivers a song with an honesty that transcends trends, and genres."
