by B. S. on 12/13/21My wife and I have seen Vanessa play at several different venues, including indoors at both Natalie’s locations in Columbus, and outdoors at the Creekside Blues & Jazz Fest in Gahanna. Each performance was memorable from the great music and outstanding vocals to her stage presence that always gets the crowd going and engaged in the performance itself. A truly great talent that everyone should see if you get the chance..

by M. F. on 2/24/20Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonNice venue. Vanessa was fantastic, but the highlight of the night was our first exposure to King Solomon Hicks!! Such a smooth guitar player and a wonderful young man to talk with. Only 22 years old and I expect big things will be in store for him.
