"Finnish blues singer Ina Forsman has just released her new album Been Meaning To Tell You. Ina has been on the scene since 2013 and has already released two albums for Ruf Records ... The songs are an extraordinary blend of non-traditional blues, cocktail jazz, rock funk and pop, with the occasional excursion into territory that harnesses the effervescent colour of Latin. But it's an amalgamation that works, not only for the quality of the songs but the sheer power and dynamic artistry of Ina's vocals. Whether it's with a gospel army choir billowing behind her, such as in Be My Home and Chains, or when in a cappella mode on Sunny, the force of her voice, both during restrained moments or more unbridled peaks, is such that its emotional pull is incontestable".
