Sharp has that vocal sound that is hard to defne to a single genre. A little blues, some roots rock, Americana, Pop. It’s all in there on this track, and the writing has clever word play as well as deeper meaning to ponder on subsequent listens.”

There is an edge and attitude and empowerment to this track and the imagery of the video is pretty dang enjoyable as well.”
“Sometimes what we need us right there under our nose and yet we have a hard time seeing it. Tessa Dalton gives us a beautiful piano ballad about realizing the love she’s been searching for has been right there beside her all along.
’You See Me’ is about realizing that person locked in the so-called friend zone is the one that truly knows who you are and the one you can depend on but of course we all suffer from the grass is greener phenomenon that leads us to go for the wrong yet extic choice before we learn our lesson that different isn’t always better. ”
