"String Sisters, returned as international touring acts, in this case highlighting their Nordic tendencies with the superbly orchestrated carousal, Late Night in Førde" – Rob Adams, The TImes
Orkney Folk Festival | May 2018
"A gloriously exhilarating performance. Spanning gossamer-fine chamber-folk delicacy, deliciously spiky Nordic adventure and exultantly massed Celtic romps, it even included some singing, in Ní Mhaonaigh and Härdelin’s aptly breezy duet on ‘Wind and Rain’, all matching undiluted traditional spirit with utmost 21st-century sophistication" – Folk Radio
Orkney Folk Festival | May 2018
"(The) women's vast collective wealth of experience and repertoire, spanning rejigged mediaeval material and complex bespoke compositions, delivered a panoply of gorgeously arrayed, intricately orchestrated instrumental music" – Sue Wilson, Songlines
Edinburgh Queen's Hall | 30 May 2018
"Tonight’s performance drew upon the varied backgrounds of all musicians, and classical music and music with its roots as far back as the medieval period also fused their way into a seamless performance that was a great tribute to the huge skills as musical arrangers that the band have ... String Sisters do effortlessly what is often considered to be the most difficult thing of all in traditional folk music – making your music sound like it has always been there 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟" – Southside Advertiser, Edinburgh
