Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded after getting married and having her first child, the influential indie-rock singer-songwriter trades the lo-fi grit and sexual frankness of her early work for mature, highly polished pop hooks. The album's bright, layered production frames sharp, deeply introspective observations on motherhood, domesticity, and changing identity.
