“Monica paints a picture and tells a story with her music. And not only is she a great musician, but it’s her voice that really draws you in and keeps you there. I look forward to hearing more music from her...” RAUL MALO (The Mavericks)

"WASHASHORE COWGIRL"
Monica Rizzio Shines with Righteous Zeal on Washashore Cowgirl CD
By Bill Copeland on August 11, 2016
"Monica Rizzio’s first official solo CD Washashore Cowgirl is chockfull of great original country and country roots songs. Originally from Texas, this Cape Cod resident shows she can project plenty of her southern girl charm and sensibility into her original songs and standards. It’s who she is. A former member of folk trio Tripping Lily, Rizzio wrote or co-wrote most of the righteously fresh material on this album....."
