“To hear Valerie is a pleasure. To watch her - a riot. Wrapped inside her small frame - and a gorgeous gown - are iron pipes that blow the audience away. She's a bundle of energy. A comedienne. Think Fanny Brice without the ugly.”
Candice Mutshchler/Charlotte Life Magazine, FL

“Gone are Judy Garland, Ethel Merman, and the original Red Hot Mama, Sophie Tucker, but Valerie Sneade keeps up their tradition with her cabaret-style shows, a mix of belting vocals, tender ballads and witty conversation with the audience.”
Sandy Coperman/The Sun, Port Charlotte, FL

“Known not only for her powerhouse voice but also for her vibrant stage personality, Sneade can be a tease, a comic-sometimes brash-a girlfriend, a cheerleader and a class act all wrapped up in one.”
Marilyn Carpenter/The Herald Tribune, Port Charlotte, FL

“Ms. Sneade is a formidable singer with a giant voice when she chooses to call on it, a wondrous talent for mimicry, and a pure lush tone. She can easily outdo Ethel Merman, if she wants to, startling the most distant rows; she can outdo Julie Andrews with purity of nuance. The audience easily gave her a standing ovation.”
John Zeugner/ Worcester Telegram and Gazette, MA

“She sings up a storm…each song sung in a full theatrical style that takes no prisoners…Sneade has a voice “like buttah” that can go from lilt to belt in seconds flat…with her powerhouse pipes and beaming stage personality, Sneade pulls of this show with a dazzling display of determination.”
John Amodeo/Bay Windows, Boston, MA

“The piece de resistance was Valerie Sneade…Sneade’s voice can become bold and brassy when the lyrics need her to strut and as tender as a teardrop when she wants to break your heart…a dynamo!”
Beverly Creasey/THEATERMIRROR, Boston,MA

“The house lights dimmed but a blaze brightened the stage…young diva-in-the-making…Valerie Sneade…a local legend…”
Namoi Donson/Herald Tribune, Englewood, FL

"If you ever get a chance to see Valerie Sneade on stage, put on your nikes and get to the box office, fast! This woman has vocal power, great intonation, agility, good rhythmic timing, the ability to be as soft and gentle as well as brassy and broad. She also has a comfort and ownership of the music that makes the whole package look, oh, so easy. Truly, an exquisite performer.
Ida Zecco/Cabaret Hotline Online, NYC

“Valerie Sneade is New York-caliber cabaret. OK, she's not Feinstein's or the Carlyle -- yet -- but she's good. Really good.”
Mark Chapman/The Herald Tribune, Englewood, FL

“Valerie Sneade is a sober, white, female version of Sammy Davis Jr…”
Joe Ellingham/Southbridge News, Southbridge, MA

“Her wide ranging soprano encompasses many colors and she uses them along with a fine awareness of dynamics to do her musical material justice…witty and thoroughly entertaining!”
Wendy Kupferman/THEATERMIRROR, Boston, MA

“Sneade explodes! She gets to show both her comic talent and a knack for capturing a song’s most dramatic moment.”
David Goldberg/Worcester Telegram, Worcester, MA
