“Art needs new, refined voices to add a different dimension to the project as a whole. Ayanna Witter-Johnson is one such formidable bastion.”

"This record is at its strongest when it is her, Reuben and a story, or when the ancestors are in the room. Fourteen years on from Birmingham Town Hall, the second album has been worth the wait."

"This whole album is a spiritual wonder, a church in and of itself, sanctified ground where the ghosts of music past dance and sing with the modernist future. Ayanna has played a blinder here; a queen’s chess move. Long may she reign."
LOUDER THAN WAR

“With her balsamaceous voice, expert use of the cello as a contrapuntal foil, and distinctive compositions, any new album from the singer-songwriter, cellist and composer Ayanna Witter-Johnson is something to be warmly embraced.”
