Meppener Tagespost, 20.05.2014 - NWZ-Göppinger Kreisnachrichten, 12.02.2014 - Rhein-Neckar-Zeitung, 11.02.2014 - Schwarzwälder Bote, 09.02.2014
Die vier Musiker überzeugten mit einem breiten Repertoire mit Traditionals und Balladen aus England, Schottland, Irland und Deutschland. „Celtic Crossroads“ heißt ihr Programm, mit dem sie in der Kniki das Publikum zu Begeisterungsstürmen hinrissen. (...)
Salzgitter Zeitung, 16.02.2013
Die Folk-Fans kamen an diesem Abend voll auf ihre Kosten, denn „Litha“ deckte alle Facetten ihres Genres ab, angefangen von feurigen Tunes mit treibendem Beat bis zu gefühlvollen langsamen Stücken.
fRoots, April 2012 (#346)
Each of these selections is intelligently scored and superbly played, bearing replay in a way that instrumental tracks don’t always manage.
Vocally as well as instrumentally, Litha are truly blessed, since they possess two excellent lead singers in Aaron and Gudrun, while Claire and Jürgen’s backing vocals are both supportive and well harmonised. This CD is an especially scintillating example of the diversity principle at work providing an immensely satisfying listening experience.
The girls' voices work beautifully in harmony and the musicianship is top-notch. The traditional tracks show the kinship between the nations and the self-penned stuff displays a continuity and sensitivity. Aaron Jones has a lovely Dougie McLeanesque quality to his voice and Juergen Treyz's guitaring is superb. This album proves there are no barriers. And if there are, well you can just dance right on over them.

The Living Tradition, 2012
They meet at this quite literal Celtic crossroads to share and celebrate their common ground through exciting yet truly relaxed musicianship that’s so natural and refreshing, partly because you feel (as they themselves clearly do) that they’ve nothing to prove.
