Anne Cammon Fiero

On the electro-acoustic version of India Songs from the album Beauty Keeps Laying its Sharp Knife Against Me:

"We extend our stay in the East with Anne Cammon's "India Songs." In these spartan, acoustic meditations each gesture happens in its own envelope of light, each word falls on the air like a drop of honey or rain. Strands of words erupt from Cammon's throat like 'leaves on branches that appeared dead,' creating strikingly cinematic pieces..."

On her radio work:

"I’ve got to listen to some of her work and have to say that while it’s not always “hard” audio theater, it’s definitely storytelling in sound, and that’s what I’m all about. A style like This American Life with a gritty, literary tone.

We’re not talking about frou-frou writers in berets smoking cloves here, either, we’re talking about serious professionals and denizens of the underground.

Love it."

"I sat and listened to artist after artist delivering their lines and at the conclusion of each reading came a guttural 'hmmph' from my end."
