Album Review

Reviewed 2023-09-01
In her 8th album, Andrews celebrates a promising new relationship by trading in her sad emo past for a warm & optimistic americana vibe. The new sound is embellished with help from producer Sam Evian (Big Thief) and multi-instrumentalist Josh Kaufman (Bonnie Light Horsemen) who together add gentle electronic swirls in a way that deftly compliment her warm, rootsy country infused indie sound.
