    UK Guardian Review - "One That Got Away"
    December 12, 2004

    4 out of 5 STARS
    When Green Eyed Soul was released in Britain last May, it represented a feat of willpower for Lari White. She'd already released some country albums in Nashville, but feeling increasingly uncomfortable with Music City's crossover-bimbo stereotype, White retreated to record the music she felt comfortable making, initially releasing the album on her own Skinny WhiteGirl label.

    All Music Guide Review: Green Eyed Soul is "Highly recommended"
    July 21, 2004

    Lari White's first American album of the new millennium (her last, Stepping Stone, was issued in 1998) was released in the United Kingdom in June of 2004 on the Mesmerizing label. Green Eyed Soul, produced by White, comes to us courtesy of her own Skinny White Girl label. Having established herself in the '90s as a pop-country artist, this set is going to be a change-up for some as the title offers a sleek peek toward what she's going for. White's aim is slick, chart-ready R&B, and nu-soul.

    Pop's Great White Hope
    May 5, 2004

    Pop: Great White hope

    Take one fed-up country singer and a tub of hair dye, mix them together and what do you get? A soul-singing sensation, says Robin Eggar

    To make a great soul album requires more than just a voice. It demands emotions actually lived: to have experienced pain and longing, love and lust, triumph and despair. Which is why the finest soul album this year comes not from Devon’s teen prodigy Joss Stone, but from Lari White, a 38-year-old mother of two, failed country singer and occasional actress.
