“If tragedy informs Cindy Lee Berryhill’s ‘The Adventurist’, it’s not an album about death, but about life. Not every song here is a happy one, but taken together, this is an album that celebrates human existence in all its tarnished glories. And anyone who can record a tune using her dishwasher as a rhythm machine is an artist more than worthy of your support…. Berryhill’s muse has been generous with her.” — All Music
