"On the surface, The Women Who Raised Me might seem like a regression, the kind of project that would have made more sense as an introduction - especially since Springs co-wrote some of her debut and almost everything on the follow-up. Only one spin makes it clear that Springs is in her element, and an increasingly fascinating interpreter".

"Singer and pianist Kandace Springs tackles a dozen songs associated with her jazz vocal heroes, and the combination of simplicity and sincerity is winning ... She's not dazzling yet, or at least not blazing trails in a dazzling way. But, on the strength of this recording, it's not hard to imagine a strong future for her talent".

"Singer/pianist Kandace Springs gives a shout-out to the vocalists who inspired her on The Women Who Raised Me, her fourth Blue Note album-this one comprising a dozen songs from the Nashville bandleader's formative years. The honorees here represent everything from classic and contemporary jazz to blues, pop, neo-soul and Brazilian music ... She uses a standard, mostly acoustic, rhythm section as an offset to her r&b-ornamented vocal lines. But the standout is Springs' duet with fellow Blue Note artist Norah Jones on a dusky, eloquent "Angel Eyes." They draw new lines with this one".
