"The Martin Guitar Company is proud to be a part of Taming Ingrid's gear list and wishes the band all the best in support of their great original music... the arrangements are very smooth and listener friendly.

"Taming Ingrid sent me their CD to consider for use on 'Sorority Life'. 'You Are All That' fit perfectly for one of the scenes. I am really glad that we could find a place for Taming Ingrid in the show. I am definitely looking forward to hearing more music from the band... Rhonda Valles of Taming Ingrid is a unique talent. It's not often that you see a female lead guitarist. Rhonda definitely adds a great energy to the band. She makes Taming Ingrid that much more fun!"

"Rhonda's catchy rhythms and good looks separate her from the competition. She complements Taming Ingrid in ways the stereotypical female and male guitar players can't."

Rhonda Valles is a wonderful guitarist, whose ability to unleash dazzling and melodic fretwork is a rare gift in a pop world noteworthy for its profound lack of original musicians."

"Rhonda is a very hard working success minded 'millenium woman'. Monica and her work perfect together on stage and her guitar playing is one of the key ingredients to Taming Ingrid's sound... there is a ton of passion about music in (Monica's) soul... she was born to perform and make her audience 'feel' her music and her message"
