"Top of the world" - "From two proud Yorkshire natives, this album celebrates the rich heritage of Yorkshire folk song. Their voices complement each other perfectly, as if this duo were always meant to sing together. Their vocals are left to hold their own entirely on the a cappella waltz 'The Girl Who Was Poorly Clad', and hold their own they do as, reminiscent of sean nós singing, subtly beautiful harmonies allow storytelling to take centre stage. The duo are also talented instrumentalists; the beautiful 'Nellie O'Bob's O't'Crowtrees' opens with Jones' delicate acoustic guitar, joined soon by Griffith's arresting fiddle melodies. Several tracks are underpinned by Jones' enchanting harmonium, most notably the hymn-like ballad 'What is That Blood on Thy Shirt Sleeve'. Every element weaves together seamlessly throughout this album, the delicate subtlety with which each line has been curated only adding to the impressive handling of these tunes"

"It has been said that they do things differently in Yorkshire and Bryony Griffith and Alice Jones's first recording together certainly stands out for its fresh, vibrant and direct approach. The album is subtitled 'Songs from Yorkshire', and songs - not so much from but, as the sleeve notes put it, "collected in Yorkshire and by people living in Yorkshire" - is what you get, performed by two of Yorkshire's finest, delivered with absolute conviction and palpable charm ... 'A Year Too Late...' is traditional folk music at its most beguiling. It is one of those rare collections of music that cajoles its way into your listening consciousness, drawing you in so you become immersed in it and want to bring it to the attention of others"
