"With Flanagan's Field, Maine-based pianist/singer/songwriter Ellen Tipper and her band have crafted a shimmering folk/pop hybrid.  Tipper favors single notes over big chords and this less-is-more philosophy makes the whole album sparkle.  On this winning effort, Tipper sounds at times wise like Carole King and at others earnest like Sarah MacLachlan.  Yet Ellen Tipper comfortably and confidently molds these influences into a style all her own."  -  Muse's Muse

"Pop in native Mainer and Appleton resident Ellen Tipper's CD, Flanagan's Field, and relax to the clean sound of this classical pianist turned singer/songwriter.  Combining the playfulness of Mary Chapin Carpenter,  the quirkiness of Dar Williams, and the soul of Norah Jones, Tipper creates a sound that is at once melodic and moody, sweeet and sultry.  Ranging from upbeat to achingly emotional, Tipper's melodies and lyrics prove her to be a varied and talented artist and reflect the myriad personal and musical influences she has experienced in her travels around the world."  - Downeast Magazine
