“Shout” strikes a gorgeous balance between melancholy and euphoria, with Uhl exploring a liberating joy that always feels just out of reach. She puts her celestial vocal talents front and center, delivering a soaring performance that is lifted higher by thick echoing drum patterns and colorful sax lines courtesy of Jeff Tobias. The result feels at moments like it could be a lost classic from the likes of Kate Bush, yet Uhl also shades the track with her own dreamy and operatic touches, leaving the track as a transportive fantasia of gleaming glassy melodies.

These days it is becoming quite a rarity that an artist that is coming with a debut release is at least attempting, let alone being able to express a hefty dose of individuality both in song writing and in case of singer (songwriter) Uhl and her starting point EP, Channels.

“All theatrical elements aside, something I hope to create in my music and live performances is a transportive experience, whether that’s achieved by embodying different characters or just by the sonic landscape of the music. If I can shift someone's mood or take them to a unique or unusual place visually and emotionally, then then the art is working.”

“Uhl’s voice, meanwhile, is gorgeous, summoning operatic gravitas while still retaining its clarity and agility. It reinforces the song’s narrative: it’s very much the kind of voice a beauty queen might have, aging or otherwise. But as grand and romantic as the song sometimes sounds, it doesn’t let you forget the pain at its center.”
— Joe Hoeffner, Two Story Melody
“Uhl uses the female voice to create a mood that goes beyond the lyrics. Uhl’s dreamy, ethereal vocals expand the borders of “Badlands” beyond the horizon. It is beautiful and hypnotic.”
