Recent reviews of Sean’s latest CD said:
"I’ve reviewed Wiggins before, and each time I think she can’t pull any more surprises on me, she proves me wrong. I’ve never heard her sound this good. That sweet, tough, bluesy voice contains such richness, depth, and subtle nuances that change with each breath.” Jennifer Layton, Indie-Music.com
Music Connection said, “Wiggins could easily be misidentified as a simple singer/songwriter, but what she does is so much more. She actually takes you into her world and makes you feel right at home… never predictable or boring.”
Album Network says, “ Sean Wiggins, whose powerful vocals easily recall the best qualities of Janis Joplin, Melissa Etheridge and Sass Jordan…”
“Wiggins offers up a delicious collection of beautiful and bittersweet songs on "Next Time Around." Inspired by past relationships, Wiggins delivers her poetic message of life, love and heartbreak in her lovely soulful vocal style complimented by her incredible guitar playing.” - Deborah Keith, GoGirlsMusic.com
