"Reuniting with producer Curt Schneider, who previously helmed her 2018 album Castles, Lissie works in a similarly mellow territory, draping electronics, echoes, harmonies, and other effects on songs that could withstand being stripped to their absolute basics. She doesn't mince words: there are tracks called "Sad," "Lonesome Wine," and "I Hate This" here, songs that deliver upon their titular promises".

"Lissie's country-inflected Carving Canyons considers who she is, looking back to childhood but also realizing that she can help shape a positive future".

"Singer-songwriter Lissie, like most of us, dealt with a fair share of personal turmoil during the pandemic, including nursing a heartbreak. The place she did it, however, was different - her very own farm in Iowa, accompanied mostly by her trusty pup - and the forced isolation allowed her to fully feel her pain, then begin to heal from it. She also started the process of writing a new album, which deals with, well, dealing with that pain (and bouncing back from it). Along the way, Carving Canyons became a joint effort with some of today's best songwriters".
