Don’t Cry Now

A definitive document of the 1973 California sound. Pedal steel and piano frame a voice that is simultaneously fragile and indestructible.

The ultimate soundtrack for driving away from a heartbreak with the windows down.

A weary but powerful exploration of transition and the specific loneliness of the road.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The soaring, crystalline high note that breaks through the pedal steel on Colorado.
The transition from the sparse acoustic opening to the full-band swell on I Can Almost See It.
The weary, lived-in vocal delivery on the title track that feels like a shared secret.
