Critical reaction to Homecoming: Songs of Comfort and Joy
“Described as ‘Songs of Comfort and Joy,’ Dana’s album is a marvelous
rendition of the chosen Christmas carols that kindles our spirits and
reminds us of our roots. In each of these exceptionally arranged tracks,
Dana has scattered enough evidence that tells us why she is an artist of
a rare category… ‘Homecoming’ left me with a rare kind of serenity that
lasted for so long after listening to the album. I strongly recommend this
album… if you have a passion for inspiring music that can directly
address your soul in a profound way.”
Vivek Kumar – New Music Alert

“Just in time before the snow flies, Dana
Cunningham has gifted her fans a special
album. Brimming with wonderful melodies,
Homecoming’s carols are imaginatively
arranged, soulfully performed, and flawlessly
produced. The perfect musical
accompaniment to family gatherings, holiday
festivities, or simply reflecting on the wonders
of the season. Highly recommended!”
Bill Binkelman – Wind and Wire
