......Throughout songs that pull from her Southern musical roots, Ms. Hearst tells stories that draw on diverse images--from religious images to scenes from the bar-- in ways familiar to classic country. But from the handmade painted skull art on her album, to the throughly modern, indie-sounding arrangement of its songs, there's no question that Ms. Hearst hasn't got her ears on the past for any of her ideas. Pleading, regretful lyrics, swelling drums and blues type guitar next to male/female vocal harmonies on tracks such as "Pocahontas" epitomize what a different and better version she has made. With its wary acoustic guitar and mournful strings, "Dresden Snow" one of the final tracks on the album, is also one of the most perfect and beautiful songs I've heard in years.....

I AM TRYING TO WRITE THE BEST SONGS I CAN. i want to find the place where you are entertained and i am artistically satisfied. I have been writing story songs that will take you somewhere interesting and personal insightful numbers that will take you home. This is the best i can do for you. I hope to get better all the time. Welcome to my heart and guts. It can get ugly in there but at least its all i have and you are welcome to it. Do not add salt, i am salty enough.
LOVE
CARY ANN
