“But this album is more much more than folk – Willow’s iron subtlety weaves from whispers to throaty cries especially on tracks 2 & 3: “On my Mind” & “Nobody Knows” with nods to Nick Drake and Sandy Denny expertly executed, allowing Willow’s guitar opening picks lead into the baroque cello and keys, nicely offset by the banjo.” - Independent Music Review
