MAILING LIST

Time Out New York says, "Pronsky's tunes are literate, passionate, and wry." The Village Voice says, "Pronsky's straightforward folk-pop songwriting is lent authority by her big jazz trained voice." We say she's just a damn fine songwriter. After multiple tours around the U.S. and Europe, acclaim for her first two independent CDs, Brooklyn singer-songwriter Rebecca Pronsky joined the Nine Mile team in 2007. Her latest CD Viewfinder (April 2011), showcases her sharp, poetic lyrics, and lush arrangements.

Praise for Rebecca Pronsky

"Hard Times" from Viewfinder NPR Song Of The Day, April 2011

"Pronsky is an allusive, poetic lyricist who isn't interested in providing clear, linear meanings so much as impressions, dreams, and moods. Pronsky makes observations in a clear, resonant tenor, strumming her acoustic guitar over a rhythm section, while Bennett provides the musical color on lead electric guitar, piano, mandolin, and organ. Whatever the dissatisfactions the singer expresses, Bennett's playing provides a counterweight; life may not be good, but the music can be."

"**** Viewfinder gives rein to Pronsky's country leanings on a superbly crafted set of descriptive and atmospheric songs. With a jazz-trained voice that's capable of delivering plenty of convincing emotion to her material, Pronsky's performance stands head and shoulders above most of her contemporaries, especially in combination with her superlative writing skills. Pretty close to perfection, the whole package is nicely paced with a well-judged balance of subject matter that deals with the familliar themese of love and loss without recourse to cliche. An album that comes into sharper focus with each hearing. Viewfinder reveals Pronsky to be an outstanding lyricist with the ability to stop you in your tracks..."
