“The spirit of female rockabilly music is alive and well with the band, Kinda Fonda Wanda. By paying tribute to the legendary Wanda Jackson, their set list is a motherlode of timeless classics that still resonate with today's audiences. They are a seasoned troupe of professionals with a well-deserved reputation for sassy fun and high-energy entertainment. I love 'em!” — Nate Dungan (Entertainment Supervisor, Minnesota State Fair)
“Holy cats, Amanda White has a voice that is glorious and a heart full of passion for Wanda Jackson. And Alan Subola is beyond words on guitar. ...an amazing evening.” — Minneapolis StarTribune Pick Six, reviewing KFW at Palmer's Bar, May 2021
“Take some seasoned music vets, inject the rockabilly spirit and classic country influence of a young Wanda Jackson and toss with the extroverted energy of vocalist Amanda White: the result? Magnificent Fun!” — Steve McClellan (Twin Cities music business legend, general manager at First Avenue)
“Kinda Fonda Wanda brought the fun to Marketfest’s outdoor 3rd Street Stage! With their lively country/rockabilly music they had the crowd up and dancing all evening. We look forward to having them perform again!” — Lisa Beecroft (White Bear Lake Marketfest Event Director)
