“Take the piano chops of Tori Amos, the self-confessional lyrics of Fiona Apple, the melodic sensibility of Sarah McLachlan and the grit of Rachael Yamagata, mix it all together and you have the sheer brilliance that is singer/songwriter BETH ARENTSEN.” - Perez Hilton

“Modern-day pop comes in all shapes in sizes, and P-1 have no problem touching upon several different pop approaches on their sophomore effort, 2006's Power. With a sound that runs the pop music gamut, lead singer B.A. handles whichever curve balls are thrown her way -- whether it be dance/house (the album-opening "Let's Go"), Latin pop ("Ladrona"), Jamiroquai-esque chillout tunes ("Wisteria"), or a reggae makeover of Pat Benatar's "Love Is a Battlefield." Admittedly, there are quite a few other similar-sounding pop artists who mine similar musical terrain, but P-1 are certainly a cut above the cookie-cutter American Idol type foolishness, as evidenced throughout Power.” - Greg Prato

POP MATTERS

“Arentsen’s dreams (“Conquistadora”), nightmares (“Penelope”) and reality (“Like They Care”) fight for our attention while she wrestles through every one of them on her piano. Alternately charming and haunting, hopeful and frustrated, the songs of Beth Arentsen do, indeed, stick like “sap on wood...” Christian John Wikane
