"It is Lizzie’s enchanting voice that really draws you in to her sublime world; a fragile tremolo that makes you want to sit close and listen to her stories...It is the title track that impresses the most, with a catchy refrain and dark, menacing accompaniment. This track could well be one of the best songs you’ll hear all year."
- Folking.com
“Hugely impressive lyrics and delicate acoustic backing… but it's her voice that really stands out. She’s certainly a real talent, and one to watch for the future.”
- Fish Records
“Nu-folk with a knack for a melody and some quirky lyrics. Lizzie is unique enough to stand out from the crowd but accessible enough to get her noticed on a wider scale. Clever songs, beautifully recorded, perfectly delivered.”
- Liverpool.com Magazine
“Her voice is resolute, her guitar technique admirable and all of her songs memorable…a collection of lovely songs and a spellbinding turn on the ukulele. Very special stuff indeed.”
