Reina's voice reminds me of a mountain stream - completely natural, and depending on the terrain it can flow, sparkle, swirl or roar. She is a pro with a lot to offer. On stage she is an engaging performer and her rich tone and relaxed atttitude make her my first call for studio work.

Reina has a mellow but soulful voice, pensive but
expansive, with a color like deeply polished wood.

Reina and producer Ben Winship assembled the songs that highlight the veteran singer's clear voice and its range of style. Because her voice is at the forefront of all the songs, she sounds close to the listener, creating and intimacy between the singer and audience. Collins has a song for every mood and they all carry with them the earnestness of a woman singing about life.
