Rhett Millers 10th solo record was recorded in the shadow of a potentially damaging vocal surgery. Miller recorded a batch of songs (including co-writes with Evan Felker of Turnpike Troubadours, Caitlin Rose, Nicole Atkins, former New Yorker editor Ben Greenman) then handed them off to producer and Old 97’s bandmate Murry Hammond to complete as he recovered. Threaded with his lived-in reflection on mortality and love in all forms, the album contains some of Millers most unguarded material yet.
