She's GREAT, it's a shame she hasn't broken through

"We, too, saw Anne open for Heart. The show we saw was in Seattle. Had no idea who she was prior to her walking out on stage. By the 2nd song, she had the entire crowd mesmorized. Just her and her guitar the whole way through. We bought all 3 of her CDs afterward (she signed them all) and we chatted with her briefly.
As for those who HAVE to delve into what motivates her lyrics...who cares?! Anne has a great voice to support her guitar-playing talent.
I'm a new fan and I wish her every success. Any 1 of her 3 CDs is a good purchase."
Anne McCue Rocks!

"Anne McCue is a tiny woman with a large voice who really pours every ounce of her being into her music. She reminds me of Janis Joplin and can play the guitar like Jimmy Hendrix. This is a great CD worth adding to any collection."
Best Female Guitarist, and among the best songwriters

"If you haven't yet heard Anne, I can't recommend her three cds enough. Can't wait for the new one in September with help from Lucinda, John Doe, and others! Don't miss her live either. She is a tremedous live performer too.
If she is NOT a major star soon, there is no justice in the world. But then again, this is the world of Mariah, Britney, etc... So Anne will probably remain a great artist, making fantastic music, and barely heard by anyone :-("
Take a McCue from this album

"This album rules. Anne is better on here than any of the alternative chicks from the 90s and today to whom she might be compared. The songs on here contain some of the best lyrics of any album I've ever heard, and they're backed up by good instrumentation, especially great bass lines. Here's the winners, which are most of the tunes:
I WAnt You Back
Nobody's Sleeping
Stupid
Hangman - fantastic song with one of the heaviest and best bass lines ever
50 Dollar Whore - song about a woman who's hitting the bottom
Gandhi - awesome song. Has political/social/historical/personal meaning crammed into not even 3 minutes.
Outlaw Woman
Machine Gun - homage to Jimi Hendrix. Anne shows that she can really play with the best."
What a Surprise...

"I had the opportunity to see Anne in Boise at Alive After Five (a little gem every Wed in the summer) and both myself and my wife really enjoyed her performance and bought this CD. ROLL is a great collection of songs...
I hope she'll come back Boise soon so we can catch her performance again.
