    An ambitious, album worth investing in. [Jun 2026, p.75]

    A deceptively simple set of songs that manage to explore his Southern roots while sounding as if they've always been around. [May 2026, p.84]

    Livingston is a smart and savvy songwriter who also knows when to let the heart cry out, and he's rarely done so with the soulful impact he registers on Cityfolk.

    There's much to like, though the groovy, Frank Ocean-adjacent "Cherry" stands out. [Apr 2026, p.34]

    Little adds light Caribbean flair to the poppy “Whip The Wind”, but the love song runs on too long, as does the retro soul of “Cherry” and the warbling get down jam “Bottomless”; however, Little’s vocals are always soulful. Things improve when Little moves to more expansive offerings.
