Editor's review
Considering his "post"-heavy resume, you might assume this L.A. songsmith would take the ironic route when playing the lonely troubadour--especially since producer Mark Nevers has worked with Silver Jews and Will Oldham. Not so. This is lush, earnest alt-folk recalling Zep at their most pensive.
