“I love Kasey Anderson’s writing – he’s a writer’s writer, which I often say about songwriters who tend to write as though they are building a narrative arc for a book within each song. I like an album that feels like a series of short stories, people fading in and out of stories, places crystalizing and then exiting, and then, perhaps, returning again in a way that is familiar but also entirely unique (as our returns to places sometimes go). ”
