    Where her debut ‘Not Your Muse’ saw her solidify her status as a truly modern voice within jazz and soul, ‘Woman Of Faces’ transports her to somewhere entirely otherworldly.

    At every turn, the vocal powerhouse reminds us why her songs have connected on such a large scale. [Dec 2025, p.101]

    Despite spanning only nine tracks, the album feels complete, a full arc from despair to declaration. In its brevity lies potency: an emotional journey which navigates heartbreak, self-discovery and resilience.

    Celeste sings like a woman striding in confident slow motion away from a massive explosion. Shaken, but determined to be heard.

    If you had to pinpoint a flaw, it’s that the album’s near-uniform pacing and tone make it a challenge to consume in one sitting. .... That said, every song is individually stunning – excerpted on a playlist, they would stop you dead in your tracks.

    While a few of the songs feel somewhat repetitive, they are more than compensated for with the experimentation and risk-taking on tracks like Angel Like You and Could Be Machine.

    The shock of the new has evaporated, but she's subtly evolving and broadening her palette. [Dec 2025, p.78]
