**Kassi Valazza, Leslie Stevens** “Valazza captures a fluctuating melancholy perfectly on "Watching Planes Go By," a standout track from her enrapturing second album.” — NPR "She is a gentle wanderer whose songs exude a sturdy self-assurance. Her delivery is as much British folk revival as anything, but her band’s desolate twang is unmistakably country, and Knows Nothing is one of the best country-ish records of 2023’s first half." – Bandcamp “Valazza is a keen observer, particularly of the natural world and its power to reframe and shape a complicated tangle of emotions.” — No Depression “The deafening buzz that seems to be gathering around her is fully justified” — Holler “A well-crafted set of psych-tinged country and folk-pop, combining acoustic and electric guitars, piano, pedal steel and more with her gentle vocals and bittersweet melodies.” — KEXP “Her songs are wise, eccentric examinations of emotional restlessness, culminating in a bittersweet cover of Michael Hurley's 'Wildageeses.'" — UNCUT “‘An album of subtly brilliant songs. This is sure to be one of the best country albums of the year” — Americana UK
