"Interim" CD Release Party
The Boston Globe, November 29, 2002
Rock Notes, Page E16

"Rachel McCartney at a Cambridge CD-release house party:
More artists are having CD-release parties not in clubs, but in private homes. That was the case with Rachel McCartney, who played for 30 to 40 people in Cambridge recently. It was a relaxed setting and she performed spectacularly. Her songs were very physical and cinematic, showing the power of a Sinead Lohan fused with some stately, melodic echoes of Neil Young. McCartney honed her skills by playing in Boston subways, but she's ready to ascend to bigger stages now. Someone should sign this artist quickly."
