Some recent quotes about Sologne;

"Despair has never sounded so sweet."--Spin    

"Svanangen's captivating ruminations sound as if he's trying to capture the purest essence of joy, albeit with a melancholy underbelly. It's that bittersweet warmth that makes Loney, Dear's hushed, pastoral folk songs seep into the heart."--NPR

"He wraps the ups and downs of a whirlwind romance into tiny packages. You're left hungry, fully certain that 34 minutes-- let alone five-- willnever be enough of this very, very good thing."--Pitchfork

"Through soft layers of acoustic instrumentation and vocal harmonies,
Svanangen creates a sustained and lasting representation of the classic
emotions of regret, peace, and loneliness." --PopMatters

"Svanängen's bright falsetto holds his miniature musical tapestries
together." --Austin Chronicle
