(excerpt from) Amy Rigby Mixes Vulnerability And Experience
October 12, 2003
By ERIC R. DANTON, Courant Rock Critic

Danbury native Lys Guillorn performed before Rigby with a borrowed band, the
Sawtelles. They played a set of brilliant and unusual songs that borrowed elements from pop, folk and alt-country to create a startling original sound.

Tunes such as "Impossible" and "Little Wren" subtly subvert traditional song forms, and the effect is like looking at an image through cracked glass. With her low, dark voice and sometimes unsettling lyrics, Guillorn is among the most creative and talented musicians on the Connecticut scene.
