"Jennifer Castle is an enigma hiding in plain sight. On the surface, she's a Canadian singer/songwriter like so many others, often performing with just a guitar and a stool, singing songs that conjure bygone country, folk, and blues traditions and that are lyrically steeped in richly detailed agrarian scenery and the travails of being a working mom. But Castle's music is not so much of the earth as floating above it, untethered to the natural order of time and space and often eschewing typical verse/chorus/verse structure to roam according to its own wandering spirit ... Even as she treads upon dead earth, Castle's connection to nature is potent as ever: with Pink City, she reminds us of how good it feels to be alive, even when life gets in the way".

"Castle may be something of a stand in for Joni Mitchell, she more than aptly shows that she's a true follower of an iconic musician, and one can only hope that, in 40 years time, we're talking about Pink City in the same hushed tones reversed for albums as beautiful and awe inspiring as those in Mitchell's bountiful and challenging canon. Pink City is a real winner, and listeners will be swayed by its gentle beauty, all obvious comparisons that may seem pertinent be damned".
