“Gorgeous from beginning to end... Luck or Magic is evenly split between love and lust, between originals (Daydream resembles Lee Hazlewood writing for the The Bangles; Ingrid Superstar is suitably Velvets-indebted) and covers… distilling a kind of naïve, sad-eyed beauty with a life-affirming glow.” - MOJO
“…rife with the gossamer, exotic melodies so synonymous with Phillips’ other musical projects, Luck or Magic allows Phillips to shine, exhibiting that beyond being a fine vocalist and instrumentalist, she’s also a superb songwriter.” - AV CLUB
“Beautiful, swoonsome, debut… a delicate album of soft ‘60s-inflected pop that mostly plays out like a great Evie Sands or Bobbie Gentry record. Opener "Daydream" is one overwhelming swoon, Phillips quietly drifting into rapture while the arrangement floats somewhere between Phil Spector and Broadcast.” - UNCUT
“...a magical cover of The Cars’ "Drive": her voice aches like Lana Del Rey over a candy floss blanket of synths. Four other covers include a seductive take on Agnetha Fältskog’s Wrap Your Arms Around Me, but her own Daydream sighs like a Bond theme. You hope Phillips doesn’t leave it so long for another solo sojourn.” - CLASSIC POP - UK
