Information/Write-up

"Lamond’s interpretations are conscientious and articulate, giving each song its most lucid and truest expression. The arrangements are traditional and played on acoustic instruments, recorded with great attention to detail that result in an intimate mood."
-Dirty Linen

"Storas flows with centuries-old tunes brought to life by Lamond’s soaring acoustic band and her masterful weaving of understood emotion layered through sparkling nuances. Lamond glides from milling songs to laments to jaunty dance numbers… all retain a glimmer of melancholy, resonating long after they’re over."
-Illinois Entertainer

"She wraps traditional Gaelic songs in contemporary treatments, a veritable postmodern pastiche.
-Sing Out Magazine

"Lamond’s use of modern instrumentation and arrangements provides a beautiful framework for these treasures, but it is her vocal performance and delivery that makes these selections truly come."
-MusicTrax

"A marvelous collection of milling songs, laments, reels and love airs. With text and tunes spanning more than three centuries, its success is largely due to the varied arrangements that surround Lamond’s warm, diction-delectable voice."
-JWR Reviews

"…it possesses a character all its own, and an adventurous and engaging spirit."
-Dirty Linen
