"Isa Burke, Eleanor Buckland, and Mali Obomsawin project a confidence throughout What Will We Do, an attitude reflected in the casual swagger of their string band as well as their flinty tales of living in the murk of modern America ... the trio sings with a deadpan clarity while playing with vigor: a combination that makes their tunes cut deep and the album resonate long after it's stopped spinning".

"The trio's second album, What Will We Do, displays a mastery of traditional styles and idioms, as heard in the cutting closeness of their country harmonizing in "The Pain of Loving You," learned from Trio's version, and the forlorn, old-timey fiddle melody that courses through "Leave Me Now." But Obomsawin, Buckland and Burke also apply energy and intelligence to confronting and reimagining tradition ... they insist that folk music catch up with social discourse and reckon with who gets to speak for whom. At the same time, they're also working with a template laid out by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, whose subtlety and composure opened a space for delicate, postmodern sophistication".
