Album Notes & Community Reviews

Centered on Brad Roberts's distinctively deep baritone and eccentric, philosophical storytelling, this Canadian release became an unexpected global smash. The folksy, meticulously produced alternative pop tunes tackle themes of existentialism, aging, and childhood innocence with a uniquely deadpan, literary wit.
