Ruby Nightingale has an unforgettable voice — hypnotic and warm, articulate as it unravels into long, clear tones of gently wavering vibrato...Going forward, technology will play an important role in how Nightingale's music evolves... Using a loop pedal, Nightingale improvised contrapuntal lines...They moved largely in parallel motion, enveloping the room, their presence almost physical.
-The Hartford Courant: Ruby Nightingale's Melodic, Mournful Vibrato Provokes A Fragile Intimacy
Though the track’s heart is based around Nightingale’s gently plucked guitar and operatic vocals... the ambient swirls that color the track give it a stunning depth. The sweeping noises in the background allow other instruments to dart into the song, retreating just as quickly as they came, enabling Nightingale to create a haunting world that’s all her own.

Very evident in this new single are her infectious harmonies, vibrant instrumentation, and heart string-tugging lyricism that all bring to us a feeling of serenity and nostalgia for home or places that resemble similar memories.
