Quotes:

"Heartbeat Balloon has to be DENISE DILL's best so far. You'll hear a treasure chest of meaningful words arranged into melodies that rush your mind and please your heart. Heartbeat Balloon is a powerful current streaming into your mind to stay for days." ~CDbaby customer/reviewer Anonymous

"Multi-layered and gorgeous, 'Heartbeat Balloon' leaves you breathless and spinning. Denise's always intruiging guitar playing sets a compelling visual and emotional landscape for her raw and poetic lyrics. This album is both inspiring and heart-breaking. One rarely hears this caliber of truly original song-writing. Brava!" ~CDbaby friend/customer/reviewer Aliza Cord

"This is one of the most elegant and creative pieces that Denise Dill has released. Her artistic maturity - stylistically, vocally, and musically – is apparent from start to finish within this cd, which seems more like a lengthy single composition because each song complements the next. Weaving together personal ruminations, quirky lived experiences, and emotionally weighty subjects in such a humble but equally empowering manner sets Denise Dill’s latest album apart from many other singer-songwriters’ who grapple with similar issues. Her unique approach to lyrics and musical instruments coupled with her willingness to challenge herself and others is evident throughout these songs and is part of what makes it such an amazing and moving album." CDbaby friend/customer/reviewer Stef Shuster

"Its amazing! Like always. I've never heard a song by Denise that I haven't absolutely loved. It's unique, and touches my heart. Keeps me always wanting more. Never stop doing what you do so well!" ~CDbaby friend/customer/reviewer Amanda Proctor

"The music is so strong you can taste it. It is sweet, spicy, savory, organic, homegrown, lots of twists, sometimes complex, sometimes so simple, and oh so very delicious! This album makes you want to sit in a rocking chair on a front pourch in the fall while eating peach salsa, or wander out deep in the woods without knowing were you'll end up. When I heard this album, it brought me back to sweet home Bloomington IN were many memories of denise lie. Memories of campfires that turned into magical vibrant moments that made the world stop spinning to listen to her soulfull voice and honest lyrics. Denise has this perseption of life that you want to be part of. By listening to her music, you end up being part of it, and then life becomes that much sweeter. "~CDbaby friend/customer/reviewer Margaret Belton

"Denise Dill is the most original, brilliant, singer / song writer I've come across in a long time. You have to check this woman out!" ~ Lisa Sanders, singer / songwriter and two-time San Diego Music Awards

"Every now and then a musician manages to climb over my high wall of standards long enough to make me want to hear more only after twisting my head sideways like a hound dog a couple of times before I realize what's hit me. Denise Dill got me up off my feet at the 30th National Women's Music Festival and my feet were tired!" ~ Kara Barnard multi-instrumentalist.

"We think your voice is beautiful" ~ Church of Girl, online radio station.

"I love the writing style and the beauty of the songs! I particularly love the song Chameleon, but am partial to Unsaid as well. I know there are many songs on this CD, but it would be great if there were more! Amazing music!!" ~ CDbaby customer/review Becky Brown

"I've had the pleasure of watching some of this cd come together, as well as, touring with Denise. The response she receives from the audience and other musicians on the bill is something to see. Simply put, the light pours out of her. She is truly blessed with the ability to translate herself into something wonderful, mysterious and intangible. This CD is not exception... get it now!" ~ CDbaby customer/review, musician, and filmmaker Brick Briscoe

"I listened to this cd for the first time, and had to listen to it again .. and again ... the lyrics seemed to describe everything I didnt even know I was feeling." ~ CDbaby customer/reviewer Sarah Mossberger

"I would highly suggest this cd to anyone. I heard Denise for the first time about a year ago, and honestly I had just about given up on local musicians before I met her. Simply put, as a musician she is exceptional, and like her live performances, this cd is amazing." ~ CDbaby customer/reviewer Alix Clarke

"This CD is amazing. Her style and lyrics are thought provoking and honest. She fills my heart up until i think it will explode. There should be more music out there like hers!!! She is amazing!" ~ CDbaby customer/reviewer Brittney Scott
