Cheryl C. Gallagher

„Cheryl Gallagher plays the harp with an infectious joy that make her songs seem to dance and float in the air. Her most recent album is Kinetic (Gracie G Records), and it is aptly named because the dozen pieces on it never seem to stop moving - spinning jazz, classical and new age melodies together in bright strands all around the listener."

- Scott Barker, Tucson Lifestyle
