    A really honest, fun, strong effort from Hazel English. Ranging from slow to galloping, her voice has great tone around every turn and never cheats you for effort. A very good album. I'll be looking for more.

    Buen álbum, con canciones descartables aunque un buen debut que se puede mejorar con el tiempo

    Un sólido debut álbum de Indie-Pop que será de inmediato agrado para la gente a la que le gusta la música suave, tranquila y para cantar sobre romance y desilusión. Con ayuda del ingenioso Justin Raisen y Ben H. Allen III, Hazel logra dar una atmósfera de ilusión y sueño a su Pop sin alejarse del Indie tan atractivo que conquista a la gente joven al viajar, planear el futuro y recordar el pasado. Hazel es de Australia, comenzó a publicar su música en el 2016, cuando tenía 25 años y su estilo Shoegaze y Dream-Pop le brindó un público muy grande. Con "Wake UP!", Hazel es una fuerte contribuyente a un futuro importante para el Indie y el Pop. Hazel English es una promesa brillante.

    A solid debut album of Indie-Pop that will be of immediate delight for people who love soft and calm music to sing about romance and disillusion. With help of the clever Justin Raisen and Ben H. Allen III, Hazel achieves to present an atmosphere of illusion and dream in her Pop without drifting from the attractiveness of Indie that conquers young traveling people who plan the future and remembers the past. Hazel, from Australia, started publishing her music in 2016 when she was 25, and her Shoegaze and Dream-Pop style gave her a wide public. With "Wake UP!", Hazel is a strong contributor to the relevance of Indie and Pop in the future. Hazel English is a bright promise.    … Expand

    A strong four-song start to the album. ... Unfortunately the remaining tracks are somewhat of a mixed bag and instead of straddling the line between country and bittersweet indie pop they all too often cross the line into country. These pleasant tunes don’t have enough sharp dynamics to give them an edge and so end up as mostly fluff without so much substance and represent the reflective mood of the album.

    English seems to be working through some thorny relationship issues with a collection of breezy, dreamy indie rock tunes with touches of a little bit of everything from country and contemporary pop to psychedelia and Motown.

    The 10 tracks on her debut are all lovingly crafted, but the languid atmosphere means that they sometimes drift into each other.
