Still Learning to Listen Again
author: Nicholas Croft
In matters of the heart, there are no authorities, only strangers timidly yearning for each other, with perhaps a dim hope of a possible future communion. Kathleen Pemble knows such a tender vulnerability with a special intimacy. In "Learning to Listen Again", we are now given a rare chance to share in her music of deep grace and open dignity.......Kathleen's lyrical poetry of relationship approaches universal appeal, through her tenacious immersion into, and insightful meditations on, the personal truths of her own life. The instrumental arrangements and spare production treatments here, by Billy Masters, Iris Cohen and Steve Esposito, serve as a perfect match to the warm emotional exposure of these thirteen finely crafted songs.......From the wise council provided in "Theresa", to the almost Hindu view of dreaming found in "My Little Emptiness", to the doomed romance of "Nailed (Can You Hear Me Now)", we find that Ms. Pemble is clearly a woman of mature insight into the mysterious ways of love. She has a gift for expressing the delicate nuances of her soul through both her sensitive lyrics, and in the easy cadence of her vocals.......With "Learning to Listen Again" and also through her debut CD "Alive", we have the wonderful opportunity to become acquainted with Ms. Pemble's music in preparation for it's real home, which is in it's live presentation. Invite Kathleen Pemble's music into your life, you will only be the richer for the experience.

Kathleen is a gem of a songwriter.
author: Stacy Labriola
Like Pemble's Alive album I loved every song she wrote on this latest CD. Our favorite songwriters in this genre (Patti Griffin, Suzanne Vega, Johnatha Brookes, Shawn Colvin etc) will have to move over and make room at the table for this wonderful new talent. Pemble's beautiful songwriting , voice and guitar coupled with stellar production make this a must have CD.
