Pedigree internazionale per questa cantautrice siciliana che scrive e produce questo Ep comprensivo di quattro brani, in cui la chitarra e la voce sono gli strumenti principali, ma dove non mancano sonorità inconsuete che donano al lavoro una notevole raffinatezza folk: Sara Romano scrive in modo elegante, a volte sceglie di cantare in italiano, altre in siciliano, ma risultando sempre piacevolmente evocativa. Si percepisce, nonostante le notevoli esperienze in giro per il mondo, quel fortissimo legame con la sua terra natia che costituisce la vera spina dorsale - anche spirituale del progetto.(http://www.lascena.it/nuovo/recensione.php?id=1540)
