Her seventh solo album in the books, Kristin Hersh now has a body of work stretching back two decades to when her band Throwing Muses tossed the angst-ridden teenager directly into the indie-rock spotlight. Hersh has made great personal strides since branching off on her own, each record of engaging pop music serving as a reflective document of her impulsive lifestyle, each song allowing her voice to grow from young and girlish to broadly mature. She plays most of the instruments on all 14 songs, several of which deal with the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina (Hersh once lived in New Orleans) and a personal misfortune in her own home. Heartbreak practically drips from Hersh's voice when she vows that "getting up is what hurts" in the commanding rocker "Day Glow" or admits that "nervous energy keeps us busy" in the pensive "Ice." As usual, the turbulently talented musician picks herself off the mat with the self-deprecating instrumental "Christian Hearse," the Nirvana-like "Under the Gun," and "Winter," complete with tubular bells, strings, and an Irish-tinged chorus that is as triumphant as the artist herself. --Scott Holter

Another masterpiece by Kristin.......2007-04-26

I was fortunate to see her playing this album last night at the Bowery Ballroom in NYC with The McCarricks. Full of energy and with a voice that will chill your soul.

DIZZY MISS KRISTI.......2007-04-20

Being a junkie for Kristin Hersh can be a tricky business. Inevitably rewarding but at times it's a bit of a chore. Reading some of the reviews posted here I feel a bit cheated. Like I got a different album altogether.

"Learn To Sing..." has proven to be the most difficult listening in Hersh's canon, for me. It's bleak & depressing. That's nothing new for her, I realize...but it was always bathed in a radiant swirl before. The emotions conjured here end up feeling like a noxious hangover.

I don't expect her to regurgitate "The Real Ramona" time & again, but the gentle beauty of "Hips & Makers" has turned into a dizzying stream of mournful dirges. There is a very ugly sound here that even the exquisite strings on the first track cannot cover-up. Her voice, also seems immersed in muck.

After several listenings I've found only "Vertigo" to be bearable. It would've been a perfect title for this disc. It's disorienting, and not in a good way.

I wish I could feel as positive about this as some of the other reviewers here, but this one will be collecting dust on my shelf.

Kristin Hersh Sings Like a Star.......2007-03-16

This is by far the best KH album since Hips and Makers. It's amazing to see her journey over the years, experimenting with each album. Every song on this record is catchy and I feel reflects a certain serenity and happiness/calmness in her life. Thank you Kristin for some great new tunes. I HIGHLY recommend this album, and everyone I've exposed it to has had nothing but good things to say about it.

A carefully crafted yet compulsively delivered gem........2007-03-10

The emo kids should lend an ear to Kristin Hersh if they want their music with dollops of misery.

It is never more eloquently done than on "Nerve Endings", the agonised lyrics set against uncomfortable chord changes, with only the elegant string arrangement to provide any balm.

"Getting up is what hurts," she wails on "Day Glo", and sings of being "twisted in slo-mo by angry water". (Having had the misfortune to name her last band 50 Foot Wave just before the Asian tsunami, and then mourning the flood disaster in New Orleans, Hersh's own home suffered a burst pipe so destructive that it used up the family savings and forced her to sell up.)
As Hersh's spiky work goes, this is less fraught, the sourness of that cracked voice balanced by the sweetness off the strings.
Still, it's never exactly easy listening.

I am in love!.......2007-03-10

I think this is some of her best work yet, although that is hard to say about such a talented singer/songwriter. I have been playing it over and over since it arrived.

Customer Reviews:

Not satisfy.......2007-07-30

I did not enjoy enough this CD since it has a lot of explanations and very few vocal exercises.

Excitement.......2007-05-20

I haven't had the opportunity to review it for myself. However, my niece in california was so excited to receive this. She said she's enjoying it. She's working on her vocals daily.

I Highly Reccomend.......2006-05-18

I purchased this CD recently, and am very much enjoying these vocal excercises. It's a lot of fun, and Ava is a great teacher. Just understanding the mechanics of singing has already helped me to improve my vioce.

Very professional and complete.......2005-06-27

I'm a classically trained singer and I could hear the fingerprints of my training throughout this CD. Although I truly think there's no substitute for having a teacher to guide you and telling you when you're doing something wrong; this program is great as a reminder and warm-up if you have missed a class or two.
