    Though pieced together on a shoestring with Aves playing most of the instruments, it’s a charmingly idiosyncratic, roots-flavoured record.

    The former High Llama may be low, but this is no menopausal weepy. [Apr 2016, p.96]

    Understated but always adult record, but Aves's guitar twinkles across these impossibly catchy tunes and his voice's warmth masks its sometimes barbed content. [Mar 2016, p.106]

    He's an engaging singer-songwriter whose instinctive, winning wryness takes the edge off some occasionally ruggedly confessional material. [Apr 2016, p.69]
