Here is what the press is saying about Peggy Duquesnel:
"Peggy's vocals are polished and smooth, her voice as much an instrument as any in the orchestra."
Robert A. Lindquist, Singer Magazine
"She plays piano and sings equally well, and is as easy on the eye as on the
ear. She has great range, and her Stardust was wonderful, as was her piano
rendition of It Might As Well Be Spring."
Graeme Barrow, New Zealand News
"Peggy is not only a captivating songwriter but she's a fine pianist too. There
is a Bill Evans quality to her playing and her harmonies."
Bob Snyder, Jazz Programmer WRST-FM
"LA based Peggy Duquesnel sings, plays piano and writes in the jazz tradition
of guys like Dick Hyman and Ralph Sutton. She brings her clear yet unassuming
voice to mature originals. She growls through the "Drivin' Blues" with
confidence."
George W. Harris, Jazz Weekly
