    The band hasn't strayed too far from what made it successful in its beginnings, but with Naomi, they've shifted their energy into producing the aural equivalent of a cloudless summer day.

    The band demonstrates a keen awareness of how much to push and pull in any particular direction in its now firmly established folk/blues/rock axis.

    Not without fault, the album is a solid, cohesive work--and sign of The Cave Singers’ electrifying potential.

    Ultimately, Naomi doesn’t stray too far from The Cave Singers’ previous output, but she, like any good muse, will captivate, invigorate and satiate.

    The Cave Singers find a way to remove the corniness from a jammy folk album, instead building Naomi with honest lyrics and a soothing ramble of guitars. [Apr 2013, p.86]

    The result: catchy and chilling songs that cling to the corners of your mind and remain with you through and through.
