"Despite recent exposure on Radio 2, Calan have that happy knack of staying local, making every listener feel connected, like they're part of a tight circle ... This comes through in their playing as well. Singer Bethan Williams-Jones moves between lightness and sweetness to heavy gravity. Her "Tale Of Two Dragons" in both Welsh and English bookend the album, which is as close as they get to rocking ... The tunes, whether ages old or self-composed, swing with an inherent looseness and drive ... With drummer Alex Moller getting in rhythm behind the leads of Williams-Jones on accordeon, Angahrad Jenkins on fiddle, Llinos Jones on harp and the towering Patrick Rimes on pipes and sundry blown objects, a tumbling onslaught of Welshness comes your way in one joyful blast ... Charming, pushing onward and outward".
