“Rita Lovise sings her way straight into the jazz vocal elite with her debut album “Craving Coffee”.
Armed with her own songs and brilliantly transported by musicians full of unpretentious skills, she blows the door off the hinges with a poetic and vocal force of expression that is rare.”
Terje Mosnes (Norwegian national daily newspaper, Dagbladet)
