“Jillette owns some well-honed pipes and the emotive powers to use them effectively…Together, vocalist and musicians creatively transform historic material into an engaging modern mode. This is what playing the standards should be all about.” – Walter Kolosky (reviewing Hot House/What is…?)
“Your singing is wonderful! Absolutely! Unique, lyrical, individual. Believe you’re the best female vocalist I’ve heard in a long time. “
