Album Notes & Community Reviews

Sarah Harmer's solo debut was self-financed and self-released, co-produced by Harmer and Peter Prilesnik, a work of singer-songwriter, indie folk and folk pop. Intimate acoustic arrangements and storytelling structures define the record, its title track a tribute to her former Weeping Tile bandmate Joe Chithalen, who had died the year before.
