​88Nine Radio Milwaukee's states, "A classical foundation provides the framework where Martine thrives. Her elegantly soft singing voice bounces around the mix, parallel to the other [band] members ... Martine brings this to her music: an understanding of who she is to her core that rings out of the speakers."
