"Sheryl Crow for kids"
THE NY POST
"Thanks to a catchy, Beatles-influenced pop sound, parents won't even care that Bari Koral's Family Rock and Roll Band is singing about farms and cars. Little ones will happily sing along with the proclaimed "Sheryl Crow for kids."
"Pure Parent Pleasure"
NY MAGAZINE
Female rockers rule! Especially those who play for kids. Check out Bari Koral and her Family Rock Band. The lyrics are kid friendly (cars, waves, airplanes, farms), but the sound is pure parent pleasure: real rock. If you're toe-tapping, Koral's job is done; she's all about getting parents up and dancing. — Alexandra Zissu

"A kid's classic, certainly one parents will be borrowing from their kids"
The Daily Freeman
"With Koral's breathy, warm voice and inherent rock sensibility, this cd is a kid's classic, certainly one parents will be borrowing from the kids. Parent's never had it so good! Of course all this just makes you die to see the live show"
"If Norah Jones upped the tempo and geared music towards young people..."
Out with The Kids
What would Norah Jones sound like if she decided to up the tempo a bit and make music geared towards young people? My guess is that she would probably emulate the music The Bari Koral Family Rock Band is making right now. What a lovely original six song effort from this college rock veteran who at one time was considered a peer of Jeff Buckley, Joan Osborne and even Norah Jones. Bari's voice is serene and soulful while the rootsy music seems effortless and classic in nature. The final track "I Wanna Play in a Rock and Roll Band" is terrific as is the hand-clapping splendor of "A Day At The Beach". The music on this six song CD is anything but corny (despite the questionable cover art) and certainly isn't your typical kiddie rock record. Your gang will, without a doubt, be rockin' and groovin' to the Bari Koral Family Rock Band.
