The WireMar 8, 2016A lovely collection full of ethereal evocations of the past. [Feb 2016, p.60]
-
Feb 12, 2016This music is uncharted, revelatory, blossoming, and all the more so, because somehow it feels like it might be to Foster as well.
-
MojoFeb 4, 2016She delivers twisted, nostalgic jazz, flanked by her Spanish husband's eerie Portuguese guitar.... Lovely. [Mar 2016, p.98]
-
Feb 4, 2016A sparse recreation of her hymnal Second Sight from a previous album, This Coming Gladness, sums up the sound: unorthodox, riveting. Fantástico.
-
UncutFeb 4, 2016This is the work of a star-crossed original in full flow. [Mar 2016, p.73]
-
Feb 8, 2016Although there’s nothing ostensibly new about this album, the overall feel and vibe running throughout does at least give a feeling of overall unity. These songs have been given a uniquely peaceful freedom.
-
Feb 4, 2016With their dark fidelity and overly spacious arrangements, these new meditations feel almost as if they were unearthed from some distant vault of preserved wax cylinders rather than re-recorded.
-
Feb 4, 2016The album bubbles and whispers along. You can listen to every word and every inflection or you can let it carry you--Foster's casual vocal style holds true for the lyrics, so each phrase is a shape as much as it's a fully formed, structured section.

Q MagazineFeb 4, 2016As her voice took centre stage on the original recordings too, the effect of stripping away almost everything else isn't that radical. Still, for anyone unfamiliar with Foster's work, this represents an excellent starting point. [Mar 2016, p.110]
