Life Will See You Now

Witty storytelling meets vibrant, sample-heavy pop. A bright, disco-tinged record about the awkwardness of being an adult and the beauty of small human connections.

It’s like a collection of great short stories you can actually dance to.

A bright, rhythmically infectious exploration of adult anxieties and the small, redemptive moments of human connection.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The exuberant burst of steel drums and horns that opens What’s That Perfume That You Wear? providing a tropical contrast to the lyrics about loss.

The meta-narrative shift in To Know Your Mission where the song transforms from a character study into a personal manifesto about the purpose of art.

The way the rhythmic drive of How We Met, the Long Version builds into a celebratory disco groove that mirrors the momentum of a new relationship.
