Chris

Nineteen tracks of jangly, reverb-soaked rock exploring grief and memory. A sprawling, guitar-driven wake for a lost friend and collaborator.

It's like a 19-track long-distance call to a friend who can't pick up.

A sprawling, guitar-driven wake that balances 80s jangle-pop energy with the heavy stillness of grief.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The title track's direct lyrical address to a lost friend over a driving, Smiths-esque guitar line.

The sudden, skeletal intimacy of the one-minute interlude So Helpless.

The way the guitar chime on Flicker in the Fade dissolves into a wash of melancholic reverb.
