"Folk moves into a new era with Cath and Phil. Their combination of earthiness and grit, raw yet heartfelt and beautiful singing and immaculate playing makes this one of the most exciting and most moving albums I've heard in a long while."
- Fiona Talkington, ‘Late Junction’, BBC Radio 3
"One of the most satisfying - and satisfyingly authentic - records of American traditional music to come out of this country in recent years.
Timelessly primitive and powerfully compelling, it gets through to you so much so that the entire disc demands immediate repeated play."
- David Kidman, FRoots
“There's an earthiness and grittiness and a reality about this that I find personally incredibly appealing, the simplicity of the music is absolutely stunning.”
- Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2
“Dumb Supper is one of those rare modern folk albums that will find a home in both the longstanding ‘traditional’ music community and among those attracted to the form's more experimental and lo-fi possibilities….It’s a weird looking-glass effect many folk fans will be familiar with: the straighter you play it, the stranger it gets…Shirley Collins always understood this and so do Cath & Phil Tyler.”
- Frances Morgan, Plan B Magazine
"Absolutely great music, it’s raw and uncompromising but I think it gets right to the heart of the story"
- Mike Harding, BBC Radio 2
“The twining harmonies…recall the heyday of English pastoral folk song”
- The Wire
