Moments Worth Listening For
The gentle, unhurried entry of the fiddle on the title track that feels like turning a page in a photo album.
The hushed, solo vocal opening of 'Where Were You' that captures a moment of collective national breath-holding.
The playful, rhythmic bounce of 'That'd Be Alright' providing a necessary sunny reprieve from the album's heavier themes.
