'Beguiling debut' ‘infused with natural wonder’ ‘gorgeous meditations.' Rob Hughes UNCUT
LETHOWSOW
'At the centre of the album is the Zen-like repetition of 'Tide Comes In', which casts a kind eye over the struggles we face and places them in a larger context of hope. Gentle and captivating, these are kind songs to ease troubled times.' Oz Hardwick RnR Magazine
