It's about songs. Songs written over 25 years, inflected with Jazz and Soul, biding their time, waiting to be realized. Northern, for sure, but informed by Southern notions, wearing their influences – and their influences' influences - in plain view. It's about love and loss. Isn't it always? It's about moments, singular and collected, passing and recalled. It's about days and years, sifting through the past, patterns repeating, fresh wounds and ancient history. It's about finality, mortality, endings and beginnings and the thread that unravels as we travel between them. A cynic hears myths in claims of musical catharsis, doubts right up 'til he's there, in the room, listening to the last note ring out. It's about Time, and it's about time.
