[17] Hal Horowitz from American Songwriter said of the album: "Burch moves further towards a looser, jazzier feel on these 11 tracks.

The songs often bubble on a light Latin/bossa nova bed, allowing Burch to swoop and slather her distinctive whispered yet tensile voice over the melodies.

Trained in Jazz Vocal Performance, Burch is able to conjure strange and powerful pronunciations and inflections like few of her peers.

"[9] Lee Zimmerman from Paste said: "much of the album sounds almost idyllic, its ambiance seemingly more airy than effusive.

Burch has managed to find common ground between desire and determination and meld them with steady assurance.
