Album Notes & Community Reviews

Clocking in at an expansive 85 minutes, this ambitious double album captures the itinerant songwriter drifting effortlessly across varied American musical landscapes. From subdued, poetic folk ballads to simmering, jam-heavy rock tracks, the record acts as a vast, loosely structured tapestry of road-weary existentialism and dark pastoral storytelling.
