Critical reception

More information Review scores, Source ...

Tim Cain, from the Decatur, Illinois, paper Herald & Review, placed the album in his top 20 for 2005.[7] The Deseret News was less positive, hailing the "decent hooks and memorable lyrics" of some songs, but criticizing the album as a whole: "Traveling Light is an appropriate title for Courtney Jaye's debut album. It's like light ice cream--good in theory but lacking the rich and creamy taste you're expecting."[5] Matt Blackett, in Guitar Player, praises the album's "sweet, pop-inflected vocals and acoustic-driven tunes."[6]
