REVIEWS: 'CELL PHONE brings down the house with it's clever lyrics.' - The Stage (UK); 'Cabaret performers may have an anthem. It's the song CELL PHONE.' - USA Today; 'Great news for Turner & Grusecki fans - in fact, for anyone interested in the best contemporary music! From the wonderful opening song, A PARTY, straight through to the sweet and optimistic GOOD TIMES ARE JUST AROUND THE CORNER, their newest CD is musically and emotionally welcoming, filled with songs that are original, heartfelt, clever, touching, and often very funny! Would that every mobile phone owner could hear CELL PHONE, and every 'sad sack' could hear NOTHING TO LOSE! Would that everyone working in creative arts could hear the joyful appreciation of THE THING ITSELF! Here you'll find more than a dozen new songs that richly deserve to be heard - and taken to heart.' - Karen Akers (Broadway & Cabaret star); 'This is indeed A PARTY! No, it is a feast of melodies and words. The Turner/Grusecki lyrics manage to be gratifyingly respectful of the rules of prosody while being right on the money as far as contemporary comments about life and love.' - Steve Ross (Cabaret star); 'Anya Turner and Robert Grusecki are certainly two of my favorite songwriters as well as musical performers. I am always eager to hear their new work because, besides the beautiful flow of the composition, their lyrics can be at once funny and touching, or deeply reflective and very personal. As a singer it is ideal to be able to lift the poetry in their writing with those lovely melodies and as an actress it is ideal to be able to connect with the audience in such a personal way. Their writing is modern and sophisticated but can touch you in the most fundamental and human way . . . like our favorite popular songs that linger in our lives. I first performed their song CELL PHONE for London audiences and I was thrilled when it garnered the best reviews - but not surprised.' - Donna McKechnie (Broadway & Cabaret star).
