Press

“This woman’s got the goods.”
—Billboard Magazine

“This belle can belt and pen. Janita teems with vocal wattage and knows it.”
—The Village Voice

“It probably shouldn’t be allowed for someone as talented as singer-songwriter Janita to, also, be goddess beautiful. She not only writes beautifully powerful songs, but sings with such passion and conviction that it’s hard to take your eyes off her.”
—The Telegraph (UK)

“For some artists, it’s enough to be known by one name like Madonna, Prince, Sade, and Sting. Janita might be another name to add to the list.”
—PopMatters

“Deeply personal songs.”
—The New York Times

“Melissa Giges won herself a devoted fan base when she released her debut album (Evident) a while back. And now, after having her music featured on several national television shows, her latest album is bound to fan the flames of her career even higher. Just When I Let Go features ten well written and well arranged modern pop songs with a heavy emphasis on vocal melodies and lyrics. These songs are layered with just the right ingredients and Melissa’s vocals are exceptional throughout. If you love keyboard-based pop and appreciate genuinely talented ladies in the world of music, you won’t do much better than this.” —BabySue.com
