The Rainwater LP

Laid-back hip-hop grooves meet gravelly acoustic folk. A warm, rain-slicked collection of urban soul that feels like a quiet conversation in a late-night city apartment.

A patient, soulful meditation on life and love that feels like a warm light in a cold city.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the sparse acoustic strumming on Keep Askin' anchors a heavy social commentary with effortless melodic warmth.
The intimate, voyeuristic lyrical detail in Jericho as the narrator watches a loved one in a mirror over a steady, hypnotic beat.
The stark contrast of the Barefeet version of Lifeline, stripping away the polish to reveal the raw, raspy core of the songwriting.
