Music Review By John Tenting - World Voice Reports (Nov 15, 2007)
Winds blowing wind-chimes, a strumming guitar and the sound of a penny whistle introduce the listener to Veronica Lopez. In this story of the homeless trying to survive from day to day the artist would like to "Just Imagine" what this world would be like if we all just reached out and helped. Honesty and commitment to worthy issues is very important to Lopez. All of her creations are concocted out of a need to help make things better, whether it be the homeless, faithless, or under-appreciated. "Take Me Away" is a Contemporary Christian piece accented with a tasteful acoustic guitar accent. The latin flavor is evident but, gently. Starting with real prayer, "Prayer" has a soft easy flowing tempo. Lopez's vocals are sung with heart and conviction. She delivers with optimism and hope. Again, the Spanish style acoustic guitar flutters between the vocals. Strings finish the arrangement out nicely. Veronica shows off her Mariachi style, sung in Spanish, "Corazon de Oro", "Chaparito Peligroso" and "Chisme". Lopez sounds extremely comfortable in this realm. This is her background, and it is obvious that this is her strength. Even her voice sounds like she's home on these songs. The beautifully arranged "The Christmas Miracle" is a song obviously made for this particular holiday season. It is true to the feeling and a song I could hear on a "Hallmark Hall Of Fame" movie soundtrack. Sweet and saccharine but, with the right amount of seasonal soul. It's classically produced and arranged.In "America's Glory" Veronica thanks America for allowing her immigrant father to land on this soil and become a part of it. Hard work and dedication led to a family of immigrants turned Americans. It's a syrupy ballad but it is straight from her soul...and Veronica Lopez, you're welcome and ...thank you. Veronica's vocals are crystal clear and true to her compositions. Christian radio and family entertainment production companies should take a listen for a placement.Whether she sings in English or Spanish Veronica Lopez has something to say with an accent on the positive.

Fans will get caught up in “Take Me Away”
Veronica Lopez's new album “Reflection” is superbly represented by its charming single “Take Me Away.” Lopez offers up alluring Latin-flavored pop distinguished by warm melodies, sweet yet sexy vocals that ring with sincerity and ear-catching lyrics. The feelings of the heart bloom through a south of the border taste mingled with fresh pop sensibilities.
“Take Me Away” presents the kind of keen melodies and lyrical appeal for which Lopez has earned her reputation. Spanish guitar stylings augment gentle adult pop flavors and together the perfect musical flow is created for Lopez’ stunning vocal talents. The music is soft yet energetic, riveting in its emotional power and big-time catchiness. The song was featured on the Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund CD and is grabbing airplay across the nation.
Big things often come in small packages and Lopez – known by many as “Chaparita” – is a perfect example. This artist’s small stature contains a powerful voice and glowing, room-brightening personality, both of which shine through her music.
Her formidable song skills are rooted in a musical past that extends back to the age of seven when she began what would be fruitful career by singing in the Mariachi vein. She has since expanded the scope of her music and honed her craft to a fine edge.
The album “Reflections” is a collection of original tunes; the goal of the CD, according to Lopez, is bring to listeners’ hearts both healing and awakening. Previous albums include Spanish Cd's “Corazon de Oro” and “Chisme,” both of which have received acclaim in the music industry. Lopez’s repertoire now includes inspirational music.
She is currently working with A&R Select, the world’s leading independent artist development firm, based out of Los Angeles, CA. More information is available by visiting www.veronicalopez.net and www.arselect.com.
