UncutApr 9, 2018The songs here are lean, supple, confident. [May 2018, p.18]
-
Apr 27, 2018The Lookout doesn’t make any waves or upset any expectations. If you want to be surprised, look elsewhere, but if you like beautifully turned melodies, set in soft, enveloping arrangements that keep every instrument clear, this is another good one.
-
Q MagazineApr 10, 2018On guard, but never defensive, The Lookout is a wonder--open-hearted, free-thinking and grown-up in all the best ways. [Jun 2018, p.116]
-
Apr 13, 2018In The Lookout, Veirs has done what she does best. Instantly recognisable and comforting, she opens her personal world up as safe haven in these strange and noisy times, whilst still keeping you at arm’s length, listening for secrets.
-
Apr 16, 2018Veirs’s 10th solo album is perhaps her most satisfying yet, the deceptively simple songs sketched out on acoustic guitar or piano (the lovely The Meadow is particularly minimalist) and subtly embellished by her band and producer husband, Tucker Martine.
-
Apr 16, 2018The songwriting is on point and the production subtly augments without obfuscating or distracting.
-
Apr 10, 2018The Lookout certainly offers nothing that can't be immediately pegged as a Laura Veirs track. That doesn't have to be a bad thing. The joy of returning to an artist like Veirs comes in the subtle variation.
