ANGEL ROMERO Worldmusiccentral

…”even if you’re at all familiar with their style, this album will still probably surprise. Te Vaka have clearly progressed greatly since their early days and the album shows unexpected depth, poise and maturity.”….

…”on this melody-stacked album writer-singer Opetaia Foa’i and band seem to have hit a new peak. It is almost as if their relocation from New Zealand to Australia has pulled them back to what they did best. This album (their seventh) finds Te Vaka at a musical peak and Opetaia’s universal concerns — positivity and hope, the loss of friends, the gift of family – make this a heartfelt album on every level”…
