In Praise of Carriage:
“Kat Burns and co. have ramped things up a few notches, and the results are simply spectacular.” [I Heart Music]
“the confidently off-kilter [song] “Minneapolis”, whose two minutes and forty seconds boasts one of the most infectious choruses you’re likely to hear anywhere this year” [Chromewaves]
“Unheralded songsmith Kat Burns has composed her finest work in Forest City Lovers with the engagingly ambitious Carriage, which showcases her alluring voice and a fearless knack for emotive pop hooks.” [Exclaim]
“Burns has mastered the art of telling stories that portray innocence under threat. Her quiet, nuanced vocal work makes the protagonists in her lyrics seem delicate while the landscapes they traverse are frequently ominous.” [Canadian Interviews]
