“Children Running Through is the moment Griffin has been striving for her entire career thus far, that place where she “arrived” in her own aesthetic and professional view, the album that cements the emotional and musical adventure of the former album [Flaming Red] and the clarity of vision, the seamlessness of the execution and the precision of the latter [Impossible Dream]. In the process of recording, one wonders if it ever occurred to Griffin that this was such a magical moment, an album that both she had been waiting to make, and the one her fans, no matter how devoted, had been waiting for.
“Griffin is the mature, fully in control artist here; she knows what she wants and she knows how to get there.”
Children Running Through is the kind of summation of an arrival. Griffin is the mature, fully in control artist here; she knows what she wants and she knows how to get there. Her songwriting is leaner yet more evocative, her singing stronger and more confident, and her manner of illustration is spot-on; the song is true simply because she delivers it that way. . .. Children Running Through is Patty Griffin’s masterpiece thus far.” Tom Jurek, All Music Guide. For the complete review, click here.
