Exclaim
The album pops with memories of a time we might not have been in, and English's words make you feel alive. It's the perfect soundtrack to the next few months that may feel like an eternity under COVID-19

The Line Of Best Fit
Fizzing with melodies, the dream-pop infused aura that emanates throughout is charming and vastly uncomplicated. Her vintage aesthetic sealing the deal

With a new sharpness, Hazel English has delved into a sophistication that dynamically blends her previous music to create an oscillation of hard and soft that exudes in her tonality

Beats Per Minute
She has carved out a broad lane all for herself here, delivering a set of songs truly demanding to be heard by a wider audience. If this album doesn’t make Hazel English a star, we’re all doing something wrong

All Music
Steered by the singer's winsome, breathy vocals, even that message goes down easy, with an implied fluttered lash extension, on an album that aims to please and largely succeeds

Northern Transmissions
While Hazel English and Wake UP!’s vibe is defiantly a late 60’s affair, her message is a very modern one

Uncut
The title track;s urgent strums are more claustrophobic, while "Shaking"'s jangles are more prosaic. Largely, though, she's as refreshingly carefree as her lyrics are empowering. Print edition only

PopMatters
English works through thorny relationships with a collection of breezy, dreamy indie rock tunes with touches of a little bit of everything from country and contemporary pop to psychedelia and Motown

Her full-length dream-pop LP sometimes lacks the immediacy of her earlier EPs

Listening to Wake UP!, you get the feeling that, with a bit of added confidence and willingness to take a few more risks, English’s next album could be something pretty special

Under The Radar
These pleasant tunes don’t have enough sharp dynamics to give them an edge and so end up as mostly fluff without so much substance and represent the reflective mood of the album
