"Gunnlaugs has always been about musical depth that doesn't sacrifice inherent accessibility, but by trimming back to a trio, she's delivered one of her most approachable albums yet, where there's no shortage of challenge."
– John Kelman, All About Jazz
"Too much spaciness can wreck a good album, and too much earth can, too. Long Pair Bond gets pretty darn close to the perfect balance."
– Jon Wertheim, Rehearsing the Blues
"Her new album, Long Pair Bond is phenomenal."
– Stephan Moore, Jazzwrap
"... Sunna Gunnlaugs' Trio whose cool atmospherics and meditative quality draws on Icelandic folk melodies and brooding soundscapes, yet internally has an unhurried Bill Evans-like swing and an appetite to explore the inner soul."
– Jon Newey, Jazzwise, UK
"[Long Pair Bond] There is a crystalline beauty to the music that upon further examination unfolds its secrets slowly like the narrative of a well written novel."
