One glance at the cover pic of Kate adopting the role of a rap artist adorned with suitable adoring 'chicks' suggested this was a performer who understood wit and irony. Listening to the album confirmed all the promise of the cover. Pride, poignancy, power abound amongst carefully crafted gem after gem that don't mince words but never preach. Kate Reid is uplifting, life-affirming and she's a magnificent singer and writer of beautiful songs. - Sean McGhee, Rock 'N' Reel, UK, Dec. 2011
(Kate Reid) is back to her winning ways right from the opening track of her latest release “Doing it for the Chicks”, telling the tale of a cross-dressing tugboat skipper chasing down love in one of Nanaimo’s rougher drinking holes in “Captain Cupcake and the Cambie Hotel"...nothing but the finest in contemporary Canadian folk music. - Stuart Derdeyn, Vancouver Province, Sept. 2011
Some of the best shit disturbers out there are the ones who know how to mix the right amount of honey in with their medicine and BC singer-songwriter Kate Reid has the intuitive ability to meld the sassy and sweet just perfectly. - Denise Sheppard, XtraWest, Sept. 2011
