 "she's building a following there and throughout the Metropolitan area. She writes songs that sound like they can come from the Heartland, but they also really come from the heart." John Platt WFUV 90.7 (Roger McGuinn concert)

"Loretta has a magnificent voice and is a terrific performer! Great new CD!"

   Jim Monaghan WDHA FM All Mixed Up Radio Show

Loretta Hagen - Sundown Till Dawn
"2008 has been good to Loretta Hagen. Twelve self-penned songs for that big, Nashville-style voice to ride on.
Many songs are inspirational and seem directed inward for the singer as well as for the listener. Some, like
"Mirror, Mirror," are so brilliantly conceived lyrically, they seemed destined for one of the Nashville biggies to
pick up and have a monster hit. "Mirror, mirror, can you bring love back, mirror, mirror, try / Layered teardrops
blur my reflection, mirror, mirror, lie." Of course, if justice prevails, and the buying public will take to a li'l ol' gal
from New Jersey, Loretta will have the big hit (or two) herself."
Richard Cuccaro, Acoustic Live in NYC and Beyond Magazine

Backlight Productions announced , that "Bruce Springsteen has joined the sound track for 10 Mountains 10 Years  a documentary feature film."  
The film follows Enzo Simone and his international team of mountain climbers, The Regulars, as they scale 10 of the greatest peaks in the world to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease. The title track of "Sundown Till Dawn" written by Loretta about her Mom diagnosed 6 years ago with Alzheimer's disease is in good company. Leeza Gibbons opens the film and actress Anne Hathaway narrates! For more info about 10 Mountains 10 Years The Movie & The Regulars please click here

The title song from Loretta Hagen's CD, "Sundown Till Dawn", is her most personal recording to date. After her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease six years ago, Loretta and her family became round the clock caregivers in their mom's home, dealing with the changes and challenges that come with such a terrible disease. For Loretta and her family, it's been an emotional roller coaster, and her song paints a clear picture of how her mom has suffered.
Loretta is a tireless advocate for Alzheimer's disease, and she was chosen by the National Alzheimer's Association to perform her song Sundown Till Dawn, during the Candlelight Vigil at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC for the Public Policy Forum.
The title track Sundown Till Dawn will be included on a soundtrack  of a feature documentary film "Ten Mountains, Ten Years" due to be released in Spring 2010. The Backlight Productions film is about a group of mountain climbers called The Regulars who are climbing mountains to raise awareness for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. "Bruce Springsteen has joined the sound track for 10 Mountains 10 Years documentary feature film."  Loretta's hopes are that her song will help to raise awareness and funding for research, so that others will one day be spared the suffering these diseases inflict.

CD Review: Sundown Till Dawn – Loretta Hagen

Canadian Radio Review March 05/09

I had taken a stack of recent CD submissions to the office to begin the reviewing and cataloguing process.  A big package from Hudson Harding Music included the new Loretta Hagen CD Sundown Till Dawn.  As the disc loaded into the computer, I wandered through the liner notes and web-site, looking at the photos of this new (to me), but well established artist and her band without any idea what to expect.

What I got when I opened Sundown Till Dawn was a magnificent voice, tight arrangements, insightful lyrics and a terrific variety of styles, all in 12 well crafted songs.  The supporting cast of musicians is superb and the production is crystal clear, but it’s that wonderful alto that will get you.

Sundown Till Dawn is a listening pleasure.  The album supports the diverse writing and singing talents of Ms Hagen, ranging through old school “pure” folk (Longing for Home), blues (School Bus Driver), new country (Mirror Mirror) and lyrical (Hello Mountain , Sundown Till Down).  And yes, you may detect a touch a Mary Chapin Carpenter in some of the selections. You can find out a lot more about New Jersey ’s Loretta Hagen at www.lorettahagen.com.  Buy a CD too, if you’re so inclined. They’re available from the website or CD Baby – you won’t regret it!
