UncutJan 31, 2019A worthy, if more subdued, companion to Kacey Johansing's The Hiding last year. [Mar 2018, p.37]
-
Feb 4, 2019With a handful of impressive releases already under their belt, Tiny Ruins have outdone themselves here, with a full set of compellingly crafted songs that are enriched rather than overwhelmed by the fuller sound.
-
The WireMar 7, 2019Her most powerful album to date, both vivid and serene in its uncanny way of slowing the pace of time. [Mar 2019, p.61]

Feb 5, 2019The 11 songs on Olympic Girls are all lush and bold (mostly) acoustic ballads, but each leaves you with an aftertaste all its own. The songs are charming ruminations on nature and humanity that, with their anti-chaotic energy and eerie sound effects, feel almost out-of-place in 2019.

Feb 1, 2019Although listening to Olympic Girls is an immersive experience that takes the listener away from their reality, it's bittersweet--and not the kind of contemplative place that you would want to linger in for too long.
