Best written album of the year. This moved me in ways I wasn’t expecting.
There’s some magic about this album that only select artists are able to really tap into, it reminded me heavily of songs by Adrienne Lenker at times.

With themes of motherhood, child-like wonder, aging, reminiscing, being human, nature and so much more… this is really something special. I don’t know how else to put it.

I was instantly hooked when the first song gave me chills that had tears forming, and the album didn’t even peak for me there. Patterns may be my favorite song here, but every piece of this album fits perfectly.
I have never heard of this woman before but I can tell she’s been doing this awhile with how well these songs are composed and written. This is by far the best singer songwriter album of the year and I hope it gets the respect and plays that I think it deserves.
