Quotes
Heidi Muller is arguably Seattle’s most beloved folk singer/songwriter...In a culture simultaneously poisoned by cynicism and starving on empty new-age fluff, Muller’s songs offer a meaningful alternative that constitutes chicken soup, not cotton candy, for the soul. Muller’s warm, playful sense of humor is the common element that shines through them all."
- Doug Bright, Heritage Music Review
" Heidi has a voice that could melt the proverbial heart of stone... You simply must hear this singer!"
- Sandy Paton, Folk-Legacy Records
"Heidi’s high, clear alto voice can be playful, powerful, or heart warming. She accompanies herself with guitar and a mountain dulcimer which she plays in a unique style that is skillful without being flashy. ... She fills her most powerful songs with compelling, vivid natural images expressing her love of the northwest."
- Folkstuff, Cornell Folk Song Club
