Luke there is nothing else like this. haunting yet warm, dark yet luminous, timeless. Favorite track: Jewel Face.

codydjango One of my favourite albums of 2019. Nothing quite like it, although brings to mind Rick White and early Microphones. Phenomenal collection of achingly crafted tracks steeped in emotion. Favorite track: River Lore.

A dream you forget as you float to the surface try to hold on but it's sinking too fast flecks of silver in the water and below something darker it is an itch, it is an ache sea-salt dried on your leg it is an itch, it is an ache a memory that swims away flecks of silver in the water and below something darker in the car ride close your eyes see the blood in your eyelids in the car ride close your eyes read the morse code of sun through trees see the silver in the water and below something darker it is an itch, it is an ache sea-salt dried on your leg it is an itch, it is an ache a memory that swims away

River Lore 06:15
tides reach up the river tides reach us even in the city and the moon dips her fingers in our blood singing: "get up, get up onto the roof of your little cities yes you forgot, but remember now remember you hold a body of water that breaks on a secret beach that no-one else can see fight for your life everyday one night I'll catch you in my tide and carry you out to sea your water will pour out leaving a handful of silt to wash along the river bed and out to sea you've always been mine you've always been mine be brave for a while and do what you can you'll be mine again"

Free Diver 09:12
You slip down silent and slow you slip down naked and alone free diver, what do you see down there? free diver, halcyon below a storm when you go how long will you stay? when you go it feels like home when you go it feels like a slow fade when you go how long will you stay? fall like a stone come up lighter than before fall like a stone to be held in crushing jaws fall like a stone and then to be let go fall like a stone come up lighter than before coming up you start to hold your breath in your dreams you are down there again things are only real when you're alone things are only real when you're alone
