“Chris MacLean is a singer you trust. Maybe it’s her lyrics – she’s especially good at marrying interior and exterior landscapes – or maybe it’s her voice, an inviting blend of warmth and clarity. Then again, perhaps it’s the hope underpinning her music: “There’s still time,” she sings in Song for Tibet, her assurance extending beyond the borders of just one troubled country. Whatever her secret, the Gatineau hills-based singer/songwriter is a balanced voice in an off-kilter world. Most of the tunes on her second solo album are original and occasionally less subtle than they could be, particularly when touching on environmental degradation. MacLean also breathes fresh life into folk nuggets like The Water is Wide”

"Experience, maturity and fulfilling a life’s dream after facing some tough challenges. That begins to account for the lyrical depth of her songwriting, the control of her silvery voice and the easy flow of her melodies.”

— Lynn Saxberg, The Ottawa Citizen
