    This is an album greater than the sum of its genre-related parts, a masterpiece of musical control and an outstanding next step for Adia Victoria as storyteller and singer alike.

    In short, Silences is the sound of an artist grown tremendously in confidence and hitting her stride.

    Combative, defiant, and teeming with Victoria's distinctive mix of streetwise poeticism and literary depth, Silences is a strong and inventive follow-up.

    Victoria's wracked, whispery, smoky rasp exudes her inner suffering. [Apr 2019, p.91]

    Silences, the second LP from Nashville’s Adia Victoria, scans like a biting, lush indie rock record, but it’s a blues album in this pure sense.
