"Schumer is one of those rare voices that seems to emerge fully formed out of nowhere: seasoned, gritty and lacking any self-consciousness whatsoever." Club Passim newsletter, Jan/Feb 2005
“Every once in awhile a performer lifts up out of the pack who is so focused, so without pretense, and so quietly, effortlessly willing to explore the universes inside humble human events that I gain insight into myself from each song and learn a little more each time about connectedness and endurance. Such a performer is Cathy Schumer. Her approach to songwriting is organic and poetic; each word carries weight. The subject matter is her journey, her insights, her soft whispers in our ears. She is an effective singer and a skillful, inventive guitarist. And as if that all were not enough, every time she takes the stage, people listen." - Geoff Bartley
