Shepherd in a Sheepskin Vest

by Bill Callahan

Marking his first album in six years after a period of major life changes including marriage and fatherhood, this sprawling double album is a warm and deeply intimate work. 'Shepherd in a Sheepskin Vest' finds Bill Callahan reflecting on domesticity and newfound stability with his signature baritone and poetic, observational wit. The sparse, minimalist arrangements create a comfortable and compelling portrait of a life resettled.
