Allmusic reviewer Alex Henderson wrote in his review: "This is essentially a folk recording, although Lang's brand of folk easily incorporates elements of southern country blues, bluegrass, and Appalachian music... Although the Minneapolis native has impressive chops, he never lets them get in the way of his down-home charm, and he never has a problem coming across as warm, unpretentious, and earthy." [1]
All songs written by Peter Lang unless otherwise noted.
