"The Best Folk Album Of The Year" - Fader

"Lindeman's third and best LP, Loyalty feels like a 40-minute glimpse into a secret world, where familiar people (sisters, mothers, lovers) and traditional sounds (a fingerpicked guitar, a patient piano) lead intriguing, uncanny lives. It's a place that demands to be revisited." -  Pitchfork

"Lindeman's voice floats by in the higher registers of head voice, never breathy but, instead, misty and amorphous." - Stereogum    

  

"Joni Mitchell has been casting a large shadow over folk music recently as fans remember and celebrate her legacy. It's hard not to hear her whisper behind the voice of Tamara Lindeman" - New York Times
