Sleeping Bag Studios, a popular music blog, hailed the project a musical triumph.
When you focus and when you make sure that the attention to detail is as perfect as perfect as can be, andwhen you put your heart and soul into every performance and you chooseto keep the set list short, cohesive and smartly laid-out, you can pull in people from outside of the genre into the inside. Thats what Luanne Hunt proves with a record like Backroads, Bottles & Blues. The whole album is magnificently spot-on.
