"The new album boasts an ethereal brand of gentle, soulful folk with a hint of worldbeat."
Wes Smiderle, The Ottawa Citizen

"Fresh expressive vocals occasionally reminiscent of Connie Kaldor, and airy melodies give DeMos' music a flair anathema to most mainstream pop and a lightness not often found in folk."
Patrick Langston, The Ottawa Citizen
