    On Deeper Woods, however, Louise fully finds her voice. Literally. It is as much a vocal album as a guitar album, and Louise’s voice is a ideal complement to her six-stringed wizardry, only heightening the beauty and deepening the mystic vibe of her songs.

    Intricate and unpredictable, Deeper Woods isn’t primitive at all. It’s wild.

    Deeper Woods comes wholly recommended to fans of House And Land, likewise the reverse. While the two projects recall differing subsets of folk music history, they both sound relevant and vital, no matter how many decades back they reach.

    Sometimes Deeper Woods is a loud, beating-wind squall, and sometimes it's a gentle murmur. Either way, it wraps the listener up in many rich, entrancing layers.

    If the record exchanges the uncompromising, diamond-sharp eloquence of VDSQ Solo Acoustic Vol. 12 for a more complex and sometimes imperfect vision, it also enhances the singularity of Henson’s previous work, marking Sarah Louise as a musician who’s bound to keep moving.

    Like a long walk in the woods, it's richly and deeply transporting. [Jun 2018, p.35]

    Eldritch psych-folk that recalls Meg Baird's work in Espers. [Jul 2018, p.98]
