“Absolutely beautiful... the three of them together make an absolutely wonderful sound..." – Mike Harding “It highlights not just their melodic musicianship but also how deeply engaging and well-crafted their music is. While The Wilderness Yet are inspired by and borrow tradition, there is a contemporary edge that heightens the pulse of the song and listener, capturing its essence and making it shine all the brighter. Exceptional...This is surely one of the folk albums of the year." – Robin Denselow, Folk Radio |
“This trio has it all... bright new music & fresh interpretations of old songs... a title track worthy of the Voice Squad... a delightful album.” – Irish Music Magazine
“It's truly a thing of beauty... the music within is abundantly delicious... the instrumental textures are intelligently sparing yet satisfyingly rich... steeped in folklore and nature... this uplifting and distinctive disc is destined to prove a highlight of 2020."
