Album Notes & Community Reviews

Sam Beam completes his transformation from lo-fi folkie to studio maximalist on 'Kiss Each Other Clean'. The album is polished and groovy, incorporating elements of 70s AM pop, jazz, and world music. Despite the sheen, his intricate lyrics and gentle voice remain at the center.
