Critical reception

edit

Bryget Chrisfield of Beat Magazine described the album as "transportive, introspective, vulnerable, intimate, enchanting and deceptively unassuming" and wrote that it "captures this exceptional Warrnambool-raised singer-songwriter on the cusp of a breakthrough. And not to minimise the understated elegance of this record, but it also has the makings of a top-notch makeout soundtrack".[2]
