“What “Bed of Roses” does best is what too many records forget: it refuses to tidy up the mess. This is a song about love’s exhaustion, not love’s triumph. It’s about getting to that point where there’s nothing left to prove, and the only thing left to do is stand firm. It’s emotionally unvarnished, and that’s exactly what makes it resonate. There’s not a gimmick in sight, and thank God for that.” - Jim Jenkins -- Vents Magazine
“Angie McConnell of Eleyet McConnell brings a different kind of heat. She doesn’t just sing songs—she owns them, pouring grit, sweat, and soul into every note. Their award-winning single “Surrender” was the moment the world really caught on to her power. Angie’s vibe is part blues bar, part arena rock, and fully authentic. She doesn’t dress her truth up in metaphors—she sings it raw. Imagine Beth Hart swapping leather for fringe, and you’re close. Expect a new album from the duo in late 2025. ” - Galore Magazine
“In “Crazy World,” Eleyet McConnell channel a restless honesty that is as much an invocation of rock’s past as it is a testament to the fraught present. The title track of their award-winning album unfolds like a rambling confession—a call to awaken amid a society that seems to have lost its bearings. Angie and Chris McConnell, both as a married couple and as lifelong collaborators, embrace the wild contradictions of our times, echoing the bitterness and beauty of classic rock while speaking to modern anxieties. ” - Emily Raven -- Indie Pulse Magazine
““I Want You to Know” stands out not only because of its musical craftsmanship but also because of the authenticity behind it. The song is a reflection of Angie and Chris’s personal journey as partners, both in life and music. This adds a layer of intimacy that is palpable throughout the song, making it relatable for anyone who has navigated the challenges of vulnerability in relationships. ” - Jaye Wells -- ABC News Show (UK)
