"To dedicate an album to songs and tunes inspired by and about women is a joy to behold, bolstered as it is by such inventive arrangements. Todd Sickafoose's spacious production lends further to the sense of wide open horizons that characterises this timeless collection".

"Any release with Nuala Kennedy's name on it will be worth our attention, but what makes Shorelines stand out is the cohesive, compelling storytelling that brings a focus to the resilience of the female characters. The accompaniment, arrangement and production (by Nuala and Todd Sickafoose) - provide a rich, subtle frame that lets her vocal and flute playing excel. Nuala's singing is notable for the clarity of her delivery - every word is crystal clear - and the fine nuances that add up to a consistently absorbing listening experience-an album you don't want to miss".

"The fifth solo album from the Irish multi-instrumentalist is an exciting, inspiring and thoroughly enchanting listen. A collection of traditional Irish and self-penned tunes, many of which take narratives of female lives at its heart, Kennedy here has curated something rather special and rather affecting ... A beautifully recorded, arranged and touching listen, from one of the finest stewards of traditional Irish song".

"Up alongside The Corrs and The Mary Wallopers in Dundalk's folk-adjacent hall of fame, singing flautist and Will Oldham foil Nuala Kennedy charms on this glossy assortment of women's songs".
