Somewhere, Anywhere is the second studio album by the Australian indie rockers, New Buffalo, which was released on 24 March 2007, before its founder performed and recorded under her married name, Sally Seltmann. It peaked at No. 4 on the ARIA Hitseekers Albums Chart;[1] and was nominated for the 2007 ARIA Award for Best Adult Contemporary Album.[2]

Reception

AllMusics Stewart Mason wrote that the album was "the work of a musician who has found her own voice" and that Seltmann "has roots in the Aussie indie pop scene of the early '90s, but Somewhere, Anywhere, is a sparse and primarily electronic album of dreamy, minor-key tunes that trade in subtlety and delicacy".[3]
