| Swing band, which performs every Saturday night at swing mecca Olive, has an eponymously-titled debut album out on Southport Records. "... mix a dollop of Ellington with a dash of Gershwin," says the Illinois Entertainer's Jeff Berkwits, "add a pinch of pandemonium and a slice of sex appeal, vigorously shake, rattle, roll, and -- voila! -- you'll have Miss Midori and company." Though Midori doesn't have the best vocal range, but she has a sensual voice, and her backup band is pretty good. The Chicago Reader's Monica Kendrick, though, remarks: "The real proof of American desensitization to violence isn't in action flicks or hip-hop: it's in the way cabaret revivalist Miss Midori sings about getting a shotgun to do in her two-timing man with the same wax-museum affectation she brings to standards and originals alike..."
