“Lovely harmonies on this acoustic number, which remind me of the Iron & Wine songs where Sam Beam gets his sister singing with him. It's a tad more sedate and open-sounding than that though, and the female singer has a bit of a classic folk sound to her voice, like Jodi Mitchell in her soft and least warbly moments. Definitely keen to investigate this group further!”

“Lovely layered vocals with a slightly Latin classical flair and almost Philip Glass minimalism in the strings... gorgeous. These guys are excellent recording artists.”

“Such a sweetly performed rootsy Americana folk song, as only Ida can do it. (Reminds me of Elizabeth Mitchell and Daniel Littleton's work for Smithsonian Folkways... incredibly authentic and true.)”

“Yep... usin' up all my RECs on Ida. Just have to. This is a song with subdued jazzy elegance and smoky beauty... great freless bass. I love how diverse this album is. Don't skip any songs...”

“One of the things I love about Ida is their ability to select the sparsest but most interesting instrumentation... making the seemingly simplest of orchestration seem lush and perfect. ”
