Reception
Sophie McVinnie of DIY assigned the EP a four-star rating and described it as ditching "the heavy piano ballads in favour of an intimate splay of strings, often nudging her along like soft waves beneath a sailboat."
It received a three-star rating from the Skinny, whose reviewer Adam Clarke remarked, "Gregson-Macleod's eye for intimate moments means the EP is as warm and personal as the rest of her work," noting a lack of piano use in the project.
