    Jessica Lea Mayfield is only 21 years-old, but the maturity of her songwriting makes one forget that fact. Tell Me is a fantastic album produced by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys. Mayfield takes the listener on a journey through heartbreak, but in the end there is a sense of hope. That hope may be centered around the future of this talented, young singer-songwriter.

    Tell Me is a pure and earnest amble through heartbreak, Bluegrass-tinged, with Seldom nods to anything approaching modern. [Apr 2011, p.106]

    Bumped up to the majors for Tell Me, like its predecessor produced by Auerbach, Mayfield evinces maturity in both her sonic approach and her writing. [Feb. 2011, p. 72]

    Tell Me is an impressive work. Mayfield shines as she enters new territory in her musical composition and her lyricism.
