“Charlee Watt doesn’t just remind us that She Rocks, she proves it.”
“Watt has crafted something unique with She Rocks — a show that simultaneously looks back and forward, honouring legendary female musicians while lifting up the artists of the future.”
—SHE ROCKS, @ The GOV, Live Review By Anita Kertes
“With ultimate vocal control, Watt draws us in before blowing us away with power and grit, balancing us perfectly in the palm of her hand. She’s vulnerable, sharing stories of love and heartbreak and delving into the material with maturity…Suitably awarded with a standing ovation, this show is for the Beatles fan, the jazz fan, the music fan… so that’s basically everyone covered then!”
— Hannah Homburg, Beating Up The Beatles, The List UK, Sunday 23 February 2025
