Paul - I think this is one of the best records we’ve heard so far.

After listening to ‘Up The Mountain’ I thought I was going to prefer the darker side to the album but there’s so much I like about it. She has a fantastic voice, the songs are well-constructed and beautifully orchestrated and there’s a great balance of themes. It’s hard to pick a top tune from the record because there are so many good ones. The second half of the record barely has a note out of place to these ears. A great choice. Happy to give it a ☆

Ben - Great album. Interesting, unusual, song structures. Fantastic melodies. Lovely voice with great range. Her soaring voice on Raindrops makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Not a dull moment on the album. Just lovely. It’s a big ⭐️ from me.

Stu - What a beautiful record this is!

Her voice is very engaging, soothing and warm! I love the lyrics and the simple instrumentation on show here! It maintains a high standard throughout and I’m genuinely in love with this record! Sharron popped in to the kitchen for a top up and remarked on how it was NOT ME!! She loved it - 9/10 and ⭐️
