"It's Altan's affection for and embrace of American roots and Appalachian bluegrass fiddle and banjo that ignites much of this collection. The beautifully disciplined and complex banjo of Alison Brown, alongside the bluegrass fiddle lines of Darol Anger, skew the band's sound in gloriously unexpected directions, so that tunes pairings such as Buffalo Gals, Leather Britches and Leslie's Reel interlock with the intuition and intimacy of long-lost siblings".

"Altan have been around forever, of course, and you fondly imagne they'll remain here forever delivering quality Irish music with the mixture of Mairéad Ni Mhaonaigh's genteel vocals and the excellent musicianship both of herself and Ciaran Tourish on fiddles and the rest of the band around them ... This, perhaps, is their bid to make people look at them anew and rejuvenate themselves, blending their own core values with a formidable array of guest musicians ... There's a cohesive beauty about the whole thing that makes it sound like a proper unified project rather than just another Altan album with a bunch of guest musicians bolted on to garner attention ... They get the mix of Americana and Irish just about right ... It's good to hear Altan firing on all cylinders again".
