Stripped-back folk vignettes recorded with startling proximity. Dry bass, gentle acoustic strumming, and songs that feel like whispered secrets between old friends.

Moments Worth Listening For
The skeletal bass line on 'Birds Tricked into the Trees' that provides the only heartbeat the song needs
The way 'Fool Maria' stretches out with a slightly more expansive, organ-flecked warmth compared to the rest of the record
The sudden, jarring intimacy of the vocal entry on 'Sandra' where you can hear the singer's every breath
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
