Michigan
A sprawling, intimate geographical tone poem of Michigan. Whispered vocals, intricate banjo, and grand chamber arrangements paint a portrait of middle America.

Chamber folk breakthrough
A cold wind rattles the screen door of a half-empty diner, carrying the smell of damp pine and rusted iron. Intricate banjo plucks and quiet brass swells rise like steam from a coffee mug, framing hushed vocals that feel like a secret shared in the backseat of a sedan. You are guided through snowmobile trails, abandoned factories, and quiet lake towns. It is a sprawling, handmade map of a home state, drawn in pencil and colored with grief.
The songwriting leans heavily into cinematic storytelling, weaving a sprawling travelogue of the American Midwest that balances historical portraits of struggling industrial towns with deeply personal family confessions.
Critics were widely enthusiastic, and the album drew broad acclaim.
