“When a friend heard the album low in the background while we were driving, he asked, ‘Patti Smith?’ The mis-hearing was appropriate. Both are mannered vocalists whose songs are at once carriers of ideas and gestures themselves—prayers, chants and/or trances that are influenced but not limited by the words. And both are reaching toward something larger than themselves and spiritual, finding the key in the commonplace.” — Alex Rawls, OffBeat Magazine Feb. 2011
