Santa Barbara News-Press"Wexler recently released her second album, Dreams & Shadows (Jazzed Media), a follow-up to her 2005 debut, Easy on the Heart, and both albums project technical and emotional intelligence, and a stubborn and admirable will to avoid the obvious. On her new one, aided by pianist-arrangers Alan Pasqua and Jeff Colella, Wexler flirts with a few non-standard standards, and tastefully, but makes a stronger impact taking on Burt Bacharach’s "One Less Bell to Answer" or Elvis Costello’s aptly named anthem to romantic ambivalence "Almost Blue." Mature and fully-assembled, Wexler is taking her rightful place in the ranks of strong jazz singers on the scene." ---Josef Woodard
