Album Notes & Community Reviews

Prior to forming the beloved indie rock band Hop Along, high school senior Frances Quinlan recorded this deeply intimate acoustic debut. Functioning as a quintessential piece of 2000s anti-folk, the lo-fi tracks showcase her incredibly distinctive, raspy vocal performance and a uniquely erratic, anxious approach to coming-of-age storytelling.
