Album Notes & Community Reviews

Bill Callahan explores the American landscape and psyche on this sparse, meditative album. His deep baritone voice delivers cryptic, often humorous lyrics over flute, guitar, and shuffling percussion. It is a profound inquiry into the nature of the country and the self.
