“I Can’t Wait to See You Again. Mellow out with the third album from this talented Boulder-based jazz singer and guitarist, who celebrates the disc’s release with a concert Wednesday at Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge in Denver . Whether playing originals, classic blues tunes, jazz standards or Brazilian favorites, Dameron keeps things tasty and understated. She’s got talent to spare but resists the urge to show off."
-- Greg Galsgow, Boulder Daily Camera
“Dameron has come up with a perfect Sunday-morning CD, highlighted by a delicate reading of Antonio Carlos Jobim’s “How Insensitive (Insensatez),” a winking take on Fats Waller’s “Ain’t Misbehavin’” and the CD’s lone original, “I Cant’ Wait to See You Again.” Dameron’s playing is tasteful, and her arrangements are honest and simple, uncluttered by showy studio trickery. Pop this in and float your way through brunch.”
--Jerry L. Wheeler, OUTFRONT Magazine
“This (I Can’t Wait to See You Again) is not your average local jazz CD. This is a sophisticated release filled with near-flawless jazz guitar work and vocals that pay homage to jazz legends.”
-- Brian F. Johnson, Publisher/Editor-in-chief of Marquee Music, Inc.
"The 2008 release, I Can’t Wait To See You Again, by local jazz guitarist/vocalist Laurie Dameron captures the true essence of a bygone era. The torch singers in smoky lounges everywhere had a relaxed, gentle conversation with the audience and Ms. Dameron has unleashed the past with this disc. The title cut is a classic jazz vocal track, written by Dameron; questioning love lost, but with optimism. ‘But when it comes to romance, I’ve never been understood.’ It feels like candles are lit, the table set, waiting for someone to sit down."
-- Mark L. Altobelli www.rockoncolorado.com
“Guitarist/Vocalist Laurie Dameron’s latest CD, I Can’t Wait to See You Again, is a musical journey through the Great American Songbook. Backed by some of Colorado ’s top notch musicians, Laurie makes the trip down memory lane worth revisiting time and time again.”
--Susan Gatschet Reese, Assistant Program Director jazz89 KUVO
“Laurie, your new CD (I Can’t Wait to See You Again) is fun, fun, fun!”
-- Carmen Allgood , Colorado Wave Radio
"I was thrilled that Laurie brought her most recent project to Airshow. It was great working together on 'I Can't Wait to See You Again' and I'm very pleased with the results."
--David Glasser, Airshow Mastering
"Laurie D's new CD is one of the best recordings of 2008 and her guitar playing is some of the best I have heard. If you somehow missed 'Can't Wait to See You Again' in your busy life, go to her web site and listen and then get it. She is one of Colorado 's best and this CD is not to be missed."
-– Chris Daniels, musician
“Laurie Dameron performs with a down to earth, sincere passion that makes her music a very personal statement.”
--Jeff Linsky Internationally renowned guitarist
“Laurie Dameron is a well kept secret: singer, writer and a good guitarist who moves easily between jazz, blues and more. Check her out on myspace and CD Baby, request her on KUVO, and then make a reservation for a good show at Dazzle Wed evening.”
