Press Reviews "an alt.country diva," -- andy lowe, 12-bar club, london."your guitar playing always sucked," -- steve, owner of iota club and cafe, arlington, va."acoustic guitar slowly wilts in the background as a woman sings quietly and desperately in the foreground. Each phrase seems to end with a weary, almost woeful, sigh. Makes sense -- she's singing about trust and full-time jobs." -- listen.com"guitarist-singer desdemona finch performs wry and amusing songs about marriages gone bad, ex-boyfriends who drive her to drugs and who she suspects killed jon-bonet ramsey." -- timeout new york
