"A new voice in American Primitive Guitar, Welsh instrumentalist Gwenifer Raymond matches dexterity with melody on a strong debut ... Those new to the genre will find a stable ground from which to begin further explorations here, while those who are seeking an engaging and talented new instrumentalist will enjoy this at face value".

"An evocative player by her very nature, Raymond repeatedly shows that her schooling in American Primitive is in service to a respectful experimental drive that won't let her take the easy road, an approach that Fahey himself, surely, would have approved of".

"Fahey echoes throughout her mesmerising debut album (there's even a track called Requiem for John Fahey). So much so that hearing it blind you would refuse to believe it had been recorded by a Brighton resident originally from Wales. Surely this stew of bluegrass, blues and haunted Americana could only come from a land where cotton and tobacco grow ... This is a gorgeous album, and Gwenifer Raymond is a profound talent".
