  Sam Beam recorded these lo-fi, homespun Southern anthems in whispers while his family slept, giving them an almost accidental sense of timelessness. They were recorded with such closeness that they feel overheard rather than performed. “Upward Over the Mountain,” “Bird Stealing Bread,” and “Faded From The Winter” are full of tiny domestic and natural details that quietly accumulate emotional force.

  Meine persönlichen Favoriten

  Korbinian

  Eines der ersten Alben, die ich mir selbst gekauft habe. Mein erstes Album aus dem Bereich Singer-Songwriter bzw. Americana.

  Besonders die eher spärliche Aufmachung finde ich im Vergleich zu seinen späteren Alben wie bspw. Kiss Each Other Clean oder Ghost on Ghost deutlich schöner - und trotzdem habe ich Kiss Each Other Clean rauf und runter gehört.
