Traci Sterling brings her 80""s influences into her writing and composing. Her music is to be described as sturdy rock songs and -ballads with finished and closed bombastic sound and orchestration. She maintained influenced to be, by the known singers in this specific rock genre: Pat Benatar, Stevie Nicks and the ladies of Heart. Also the typical eighties rock of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Bad Company is very recognizably present in her numbers. Since 1997 she writes and sings with multi-instrumentalist John McLane with whom ""The Sterlinglane Project"" has evolved. Mostly rock she is sturdy and soulful to the example of her idols. Out of the corner comes such sensitivity as in ""Do You Really Love Me"", that was taken up in the studio of producerTony Camillo that previously worked together with soul diva Gladys Knight. In ""Here We Go Again"" and in ""Are You The One"" we hear then again bursts of Tina Turner because of the hoarse voices and the typical rock ballad-vocals. ""Lonesome Heart"" rocks but contains a lot of influences from the blues genre with a fine guitar solo and piano swing. ""Don""t You Really Know "" is a little jazzy from the corner with good vocal work and a beautiful acoustic guitar solo. Traci Sterling has a very powerful voice with which these various music styles come naturally. She is a vocalist to be on the stages where she totally in front but also the ability for backing vocals for single larger names in this genre. A must have Project for the lovers of this kind of music. (Valsam)
