Reception

"Build Me Up From Bones is an organic masterwork for Jarosz, a warm, nuanced collection that wraps and enchants the listener. If you're curious what brilliant natural talent paired with an ongoing commitment to learn and grow can produce, Sarah Jarosz's latest is a perfect example." - Stereo Subversion[3]

"With Build Me Up From Bones (Sugar Hill) her third album, she moves past precocity toward the full bloom of artistry: the singing is more deeply self-assured, and the songs are grounded in truer emotional terrain." - The New York Times[4]

"Her latest is more organic, a trio setting that emphasizes the value of space. The songs breathe. From the perspective of composition and structure, the music is more complex and nuanced, too. Jarosz's voice, warm and elastic, rings out strong and clear." - The Boston Globe[5]
