Here's what people are saying
about Sonia V:
“Sonia is probably one of the most gifted female
songwriters I’ve come across in the last five years… not only has she produced
the best album I’m likely to hear for the next twelve months, but she also has
an incredible knack for writing great songs, and she has a truly exceptional
voice… this girl was born to inherit the space around the microphone… I think
the list of honours that seems to keep growing alongside Sonia’s music just
about says it all!“

“Start-off
with an angelic voice then add in a big dose of rock ‘n’ roll attitude, what you
get is the Sonia V sound. Sonia's wide ranges of vocal styles are enough to make
a 70's era mood ring explode. She can belt the lyrics out down and dirty rock n'
roll style or soft and tender enough to melt your heart. Either way the result
is a big WOW! While the vocals really take centre stage on this CD the rest of
the music parts also make their mark. I enjoyed the little extra sounds added to
some of the songs to give them both a fresh and unique overall sound. The
lyric's themes come from an angle of here's what I know about God's love and how
that has changed my life and He wants to do the same for you. I'm really glad
that I had the chance to hear this CD. You need to clear a space in your CD
player for this release so that you can also enjoy the Sonia V. musical
experience.”

As far as I know, there is no female Christian rocker that sounds like No
Doubt’s Gwen Stefani... until now. Sonia V. is an indie chick rocker with
spunk, emerging into the music scene with her first album, a thing or 2.
The
most impressionable attribute Sonia V. brings to the
CD is her powerhouse vocal performance. If her
bright red hair and her unique clothing style don’t
catch your attention, her extraordinary vocals will.
Sonia’s main message is that it’s ok to be yourself, which is a very positive
message especially for the younger generation that's having to grow up in a
world where identity is stressed as a product of appearance and success. If you
like to sing along to CD's, a thing or 2 will provide you with songs with
clear, simple lyrics that are easy to catch on and sing along to. If Sonia’s
trying to reach the younger generation and people who aren’t Christians, the
lyrics fit well.
Sonia V. is a fabulous addition to Christian
music. Her style is unique to the industry and I give her a lot of credit for
writing her own music and stepping out of the Christian music.
As a whole, a thing or 2 makes for a very enjoyable album, a great start
for Sonia and an awesome addition to the Christian music scene.

"Just want to tell you that Renegade Radio Sound of Hope Benefit made a profit! You contributed to that a bunch. And...I liked your part. I've been seeing live performances since I turned 21 (in uh...1961). Some folks got showmanship and some don't. You GOT it!"

"Sonia Vannest is a ministry driven artist ready to
rock the world for the rock of ages. I appreciate her
artistry and integrity."

"Sonia V - She's got it. Not metal per se, but good
pop-rock. Gwen Stefani of No Doubt is a big influence
on her voice. Musically, she's right up with other
rock girlies like Michelle Branch, Avril Lavigne,
Alanis, Stacy Orrico, etc. I suggest this shopping
this to a major or bigger Christian indie label."
