Jonathan Knibbs –
This is one of my favourite albums to listen to at home or in the car. All tracks are of the highest musicianship and absolutely beautiful to listen to. The purity of Becky’s voice is a pure joy to listen to and certainly sends shivers down my spine! I just wish I could buy it on vinyl..!
Malcolm –
A gorgeous album, gentle, thoughtful and superbly crafted
Russell Clarke –
Captivated us from the moment we first played it (on the way home from the Hove gig). A brilliant debut, roll on the next one!
p.s. can I second the vinyl comment (above)

I saw Faeland play in Bristol in the summer and bought this album at the gig and having been playing in my car ever since. It’s truly enchanting and all the tracks are excellent. Love Becky’s voice and the range of instruments they play is just lovely to hear. Well done. Looking forward to the next one.
Paul –
Lovely album. I’m sharing it with all I know who like beautiful melodies, well sung, enchanting songs and gentle arrangements. One of my favourite albums from recent years.
Alastair –
A great album. I hope more people discover this band and their music.

Loving the All My Swim album. The standard of musicianship is right up there and the production is first class. Crystal clear and so warm. It’s great with the headphones on when I’m walking on the beach next to my house. So uplifting.
Favourite songs? Well, I love the bridge in Silent Story. Works so well. Another favourite is Strings, for the lyrics especially. The title track is excellent (reminds me of Fleetwood Mac bizarrely!!) But the song I love best is We’re Just a Love Song. Well constructed, the harmonies are amazing and the wee guitar solo towards the end is wonderful.
