Reception

Editors at Pitchfork chose this as Best New Music of the week, with critic Sam Sodomsky scoring it an 8.3 out of 10 for being able to "feel both magical in its simplicity and all the more compelling for what’s just out of frame" and blending diverse genres including Americana and jazz along with ambient and drone sounds.[1] Marc Hogan of that site proposed Grammy Award nominees and included this release to contend for Grammy Award for Best Alternative Jazz Album.[2] Writing for The Quietus, Bernie Brooks characterized this album as "pastoral instrumentals [that] are boundless, shimmering like dappled sun on water" and giving readers a detailed description of the imagery that the music evokes for him.[3]

Editors at Paste chose this for the 49th best album of 2023.[4] Andrew Dansby of The Houston Chronicle included this among the 10 best alternative albums of 2023.[5]
