Press Reviews “She infuses the passion of Alanis Morissette with the soothing, ethereal qualities of the Cowboy Junkies, creating a uniquely beautiful sound. Ann writes from her heart, plays the guitar from her soul, and we are impressed.” - Riffage.com “She lovingly self-harmonizes dreamy melodies around soft acoustic strumming... she truly shines like a star.” - Listen.com “Pipes is one thing Hudspeth definitely has going for her – a voice with power, personality and nifty agility, all of which she uses effectively to express some rather raw passion, longing and sensuality. Her songwriting is invested with a certain passion and creativity... her best lyrics approach eloquence and her arrangement sense and melodic gifts are rather sure-footed and even catchy.” - Austin Chronicle
