Salt Lake City Weekly

"Weird Wild Wonderful is a delightful, thoughtful and enjoyable listen from beginning to end. Hicks can go from fun and entertaining, to solemn and earnest in the span of a few songs, and it's great to get such range in an album."

Utah Concert Review

"Hicks’ voice stood out immediately.  She has such a smooth natural tone and she’s really good at writing songs to fit the way she sings...I could easily hear her voice and many of these songs on country radio." 

Slug Magazine

​"Weird Wild Wonderful contains and represents each version of Hicks’ vocal subtleties in a sincere and delightful country-pop package, perfectly primed and ready for your enjoyment this fall as you partake in crispy apples and hay rides down dirt roads."

Americana Highways

"Ms. Hicks’ lyrics are of high quality as she unveils stories & frames each with excellent backup vocalists & drama in her instrumentation. There are no low spots during the ten Weird Wild Wonderful songs."
