"My first Sweet Talk Radio CD, My Hallelujah, reminds me of my first Simon and Garfunkel CD. I can’t imagine the world without either of them. Brilliant songwriting, gorgeous harmonies and soul stirring delivery. Sweet Talk Radio’s Kathrin Shorr and Tim Burlingame are definitely ones to watch on the new music scene!" - KRFC Radio, Colorado
"With undeniable chemistry both on and off stage, STR create americana-pop songs full of depth and yearning delivered with passion and an earnest desire to connect." - Santa Barbara Independent
"Sweet Talk Radio have delivered a sonic gift that leaves the listener no choice but to smile and whisper a grateful 'hallelujah'." - Performing Songwriter Magazine
"She can write songs you will never get tired of listening to. A beautiful voice and a natural on stage, Kathrin Shorr is an amazing artist we love to invite back every season. A personal Pershing Square staff favorite, she makes fans everywhere
she goes."
- Pershing Square, Downtown Los Angeles. Outdoor Concert Series
"Her songs are beautifully constructed, with telling lyrics, swooping melodies and original chord progressions. And then there’s the way she delivers them: her guitar playing is sparse but fiery, with an inexorable rhythmic drive; and her voice is a beautifully versatile instrument, at times breathy, at times sweet, at times deep, and all the time so strong. Fabulous stuff!" - Kashmir Klub, London
"Captivating material, exceptional musical skill, strong presence and a touch of charm" - Music Connection Magazine
"Music hounds who favor the acoustic-textured sounds of David Gray, Shawn Mullins, Grant Lee Phillips and Duncan Sheik should appreciate Burlingame's crafty pop-rock. With a light rasp
in his voice and a deft way with twisting a lyric - and his guitar strings -
he creates hummable songs that actually say something" - Pasadena Weekly
"A warm and soulful performance, which generates real affection from the audience. Sharp guitar playing!" - WAM TV, Scotland
