May 24, 2021It's not only his best (yes, even better than Lonesome Dreams), but also his lushest and most emotionally absorbing. Acoustic guitars shimmer like diamonds on the surface of a still lake, while Ben Schneider's melodic verses echo a magical blend of nostalgia and romance.

May 24, 2021Despite its 16 tracks, not once does Long Lost feel crowded. The pace is unhurried, the phrasing exquisite.
