The Something Rain

A masterfully paced collection of noir-pop and soulful art rock. Smoky baritone vocals and cinematic brass create a sophisticated, late-night urban atmosphere.

It's like a black-and-white movie for your ears, complete with a nine-minute story about a weird night out.

A sophisticated, nocturnal blend of weary storytelling and soulful, jazz-inflected elegance.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The nine-minute narrative of 'Chocolate' where a casual encounter unfolds over a hypnotic, building groove.
The sudden, bright brass swell in 'This Fire of Autumn' that cuts through the album's usual shadowy restraint.
The way the saxophone unravels into a free-jazz haze during the climax of 'Come Inside'.
