    A highly enjoyable love letter to pop and the people who make it.

    If there’s a gripe here, it’s in the album’s brevity. At nine songs and a hair over 34 minutes, Tanya Donelly and the Parkington Sisters could very easily have been longer. But sometimes conciseness is also a positive. By the time the album’s final song—a perfectly sparse version of Mary Margaret O’Hara’s “You Will Be Loved Again”—reaches its conclusion, the listener is left wanting more and more.

    While these versions don't venture far from a cooing, lullabyish feel, it's a cosy, inviting one. [Sep 2020, p.28]

    Simple, homespun arrangements shift between folk pop and folk rock with an emphasis on bittersweet. [Sep 2020, p.85]
