Album Notes & Community Reviews

Kurt Wagner's expansive Nashville collective delivers a deeply melancholic, orchestrated country-soul record. Heavily influenced by his personal struggles with illness and aging, the delicate string arrangements and hushed vocal delivery create an incredibly intimate, sorrowful atmosphere. It represents the most emotionally devastated entry in their vast catalog.
