Astronomy, Vol. 1

Sleeping at Last

Sparse piano and cinematic strings translate celestial events into intimate elegies. A quiet, awe-struck collection of songs for the lonely scale of the universe.

May 1, 2020 · Capitol Records

A hushed, reverent exploration of the cosmos that feels both scientifically precise and deeply, vulnerably human.

Moments Worth Listening For

The heartbreakingly sparse piano melody on Kepler - Goodnight that feels like a machine slowly powering down for the last time.

The swell of cinematic strings during Powehi that captures the terrifying scale of a black hole.

The way the vocals on Opportunity - Mission Complete sound like a fragile transmission from another world.
