 Peri Smilow is truly a shining star. Peri brought her warmth, a million dollar voice and style, and an infectious smile that radiates throughout the room. A very talented lady, who loves what she is doing, and who added so much to the Pacific Central West Regional Biennial. Peri is a must for your synagogue or Regional Biennial. I can't remember when I have been so moved by a performer. How lucky we are to have Peri sing our songs.

Wow, what a talent.  I don't think I have ever heard anyone with such a beautiful voice with concurrent masterful guitar skills and originality all woven into one unique package.  OK - maybe Joni Mitchell, but I doubt she knows Hebrew and can work with kids like you do.  Even my 18 year old daughter said "Dad, she was really good" (that never happens!!) . . . I know you are "one of the bright new brightest new stars".

 How wonderful it was to have you with us.  As much as your artistry I thank you for your warmth and your "connectability’Äù with every possible person and age group from preschoolers to octogenarians.  They all loved you.  Your music was just the right combination of ruach and reverence - but again, it is your ability to connect at which I marvel.  You are a most valuable and precious resource for the Jewish community. We are so grateful for your performance.

 Peri - please do not hesitate to have anyone call me for a reference. If they do not want energy, charisma, charm, warmth and sensitivity then do not have them call me.  I can not lie that well.

 Although I am now one of the senior members of the congregation and attended[the concert] without children, I still found your performance to be wonderful. I will look forward to following your success.

 I just returned from a wonderful concert at our synagogue with Peri Smilow and Beth Schafer. Each is wonderfully talented, but together they were a very special experience! We would highly recommend them for a wonderful musical and spiritual evening.
