"Listening to Natalie is like attending a cocktail party for the damned. And we love her for this." -TIME OUT - NEW YORK "I love Natalie's Narrative Lyrical Style...like Joni's 'The Hissing of Summer Lawns'..." -DEREK SIVERS, Creator of CdBaby.com "...(Natalie's) velvety four octave vocals and frantically controlled piano are a rare combination in an industry bathing in the merits of glitzy production value." -Tina Shafer, director of THE NEW YORK SONGWRITER"S CIRCLE Natalie Riccio is a singer, songwriter and pianist based out of NYC.

Natalie is currently promoting her 2009 album release "Carbon Cocktail".
