    Arbouretum have often looked from a distance kike a vehicle for their frontman. Ostensibly Dave Heumann's first solo album, Her In the Deep more or less confirms as much. [Nov 2015, p.77]

    Clearly, this is the sound of an artist having fun, but one who avoids the trappings of self-indulgence.

    Overall this is a successful first solo effort. It is similar enough to his band to take Arbouretum fans on board, and it is different enough to justify the billing under his own name. Another Side of Dave Heumann, maybe.

    Here in the Deep, like the last few Arbouretum albums, is good but not mind-blowing.

    Solo projects can be very hit and miss affairs, but Here In The Deep is an evocative and at times quite wonderful set, with some gloriously summery melodies: far more than just an album written to fill some time.

    A mightily approachable and sometimes even fun album. [Nov 2015, p.88]
