Reception PopMatters wrote, "[H]is songs have almost surprising depth at times. They're light, and they don't force; they don't come to you. You go to them with a nugget of curiosity, and then you realize they're not as light as you think."Berndtson, Chad (January 19, 2010). "Kevin Hearn and Thin Buckle: Havana Winter", PopMatters.
