Reception Samantha Allemann for ''ArtsHub Australia'', rated ''A Fool Who'll'' as five-out-of-five stars and explained, " tsucceeds in putting together nine songs which are interestingly diverse, yet all equally strong. There's no filler, and that is something quite rare indeed. Laura Jean's gorgeous voice and strong range is well matched by her band and their new electric approach, resulting in an album that's both dynamic and sweet." ''The Sydney Morning Herald''s Bernard Zuel noticed that Jean, "does not fear intimacy", as the album is, "dominated by the mix of emotion that comes with falling in love."

Folk Music
Folk music is a music genre that includes traditional folk music and the contemporary genre that evolved from the former during the 20th-century folk revival. Some types of folk music may be called world music. Traditional folk music has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted orally, music with unknown composers, music that is played on traditional instruments, music about cultural or national identity, music that changes between generations (folk process), music associated with a people's folklore, or music performed by custom over a long period of time. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. The term originated in the 19th century, but folk music extends beyond that.

This form of music is sometimes called contemporary folk music or folk ...
