...a very warm voice that is particularly effective on ballads...Paula Lammers shows that there is still significant talent to be found outside of the major metropolitan areas. Well worth searching for.
All Music Guide — Scott Yanow

Clarity of tone...a seemingly effortless delivery. Her take on “Honeysuckle Rose” has a bouncy feeling, with pianist Peter Schimke opening up with a Waller-esque verve. Lammers' knowing take on this classic, especially her sly and sultry turn of phrase on “when I'm taking sips, from your tasty lips, seems the honey fairly drips,” highlights the song's playfully salacious mood and just might send you off for a cold shower.
All About Jazz — Dan McClenaghan

Paula has a lovely, clear voice. She sings with much subtlety and style.

"Though operatically trained there are no histrionics here. Paula uses her great range to present a beautifully balanced set of standards. Her one original tune, "Goodbye...again" shows a talent for composing.
Aaron Fensterheim, Award Winning Jazz Radio Producer/Announcer

Incredible music, indeed. Lammer’s “easy-to-listen-to” soprano has a warm tone, crisp articulation, true pitch, and not a hint of shrill in her top notes. If any comparison is valid, perhaps it’s with Jane Monheit, less theatrical but in the same vein of gentle persuasion, warmly charming, lighting the tracks less with fire and more with glowing embers. Frequently Paula stretches the vowel, giving the music a silken legato that makes the occasional clipped phrase more effective. The sound quality from Winterland Studios (engineered by Brian Johnson and Darren Rust, mixed by Rust), is clean, every instrument so well articulated with the intimacy of live performance that at times I started to applaud a solo. And while Blanket of Blue was recently named to the Top Ten list for 2005 by Smooth Jazz and More, this is "smooth" only in the quality of the voice; this is not "Jazz Lite."
Jazz Police — Andrea Canter

Lammers simply sings the song in tune with grace and elegance and it works beautifully.

4 stars out of 4
She has a voice that I can describe as a cross between pop greats Karen Carpenter and Anita O'Day. Her sound is very light and lovely to listen to. If you're looking for a singer that won't overwhelm your senses, consider listening to this up and coming songstress. Highly recommended!
Smooth Jazz and More — Michael James

...one can foresee an intoxicating adventure ahead in the industry for Ms. Lammers...this young sound has the potential to really step out in front of the pack in the independent world. Ms. Lammer's panache and versatility can catapult her far if she allows the force of her talent to take control. The audience will want to follow her path as she grows.
Jazz Review — Karl Stober

Paula Lammers - A BLANKET OF BLUE: & that is what it is, folks! Definitely laid-back, pleasant vocals that will wrap you up & make ya' warm (in your heart). Debut releases are always fun, 'coz th' energies are KICKIN', & that certainly holds true for Paula's "on" vocal style. What you'll notice right away is how clear the words she sings are... & not in a "high style", either... you know, some singers kind of "affect" their language & come across sounding really phony... that's not true with Ms. Lammers at all! She's purely original in her presentation & performance. Most of the tracks are covers... so, for her next outing, hope she'll include (at least) a few more originals... the one she does include - "Goodbye...Again" - is my favorite cut on the CD, in fact. She'll reach right out & touch your soul, to be sure... excellent singer, excellent music, excellent album. This one gets a MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for any listener who wants to get "wrapped up" in Paula's beautiful "blanket of blue". I'm impressed, & you will be too!

She loves the music, is a fresh name and voice, and what a nice voice it is…Miss Lammers could teach most of these big names a thing or two. The vocals are full, consistent and ... warm. These songs are about classiness and a finer school of thought, emotional depth and wit...A Blanket Of Blue gets it...Quality is its own distinction.
Fulvue Drive-in — Nicholas Sheffo

She knows her way around a song and deftly milks ballads with imagination...Every one of the eleven cuts on this CD is superb. The well-seasoned musicians are supportive without intruding on the vocals. Lammers is a surprise and delight, and this one is highly recommended. Wow! is all I can say for this effort which will be embraced by those who still enjoy vocals warm and tender with feeling.
