“The very best horns sound like a human voice, and the very best voices have the purity and power of a good horn. Monique Tougas Creber's voice is Stan Getz's saxophone: honey and warm butterscotch poured over the tip of an iceberg on a starry summer night.” -- Spider Robinson
Monique’s first solo album is a polished collection of original songs that highlight her beautiful vocal quality and interpretive skill. All For You also features the many talents of keyboardist/producer Michael Creber and keyboardist/arranger Robert Messier, as well as backing vocals by Shari Ulrich, Tania Hancheroff and Saffron Henderson, and performances by such top Vancouver musicians as Tom Colclough, Robbie Steininger and Ian Putz.
“She possesses a voice eerily similar to the late and great Karen Carpenter. The style is easy listening…the singing and production are tops. ”
- John P. McLaughlin, The Province
