Hope Nunnery & Steve Tarshis at Westerleigh Park August 8, 2009

"“[Nunnery’s songs] will knock you off your feet as surely as a bolt from the blue aimed straight at the heart,” says Jerome Clark of Rambles.net

And Grant Alden of ‘No Depression’ says, “Her voice has a wild, keening quality. Her songs are bone-shaking. . . .These are ancient, timeless tones. Desperate and free. Not blues, not country, not folk: All of those. Something primal and hand-shaped, and thoroughly sophisticated.”

“Nunnery’s voice is deep and wild, rich, sometimes ghostly. . . The songs are spare and melodic, with strains of gospel, country-blues and honky-tonk.”
-- Jesse Fox Mayshark, No Depression
