On the Train Ride Home

The Paper Kites

Eight tracks of hushed, skeletal folk. Just an acoustic guitar and a voice whispered directly into your ear, capturing the specific melancholy of traveling alone.

A fragile, solitary stillness that feels like a secret shared in the middle of the night.

Moments Worth Listening For
The audible intake of breath before the first line of Nothing More Than That sets a startlingly intimate tone.
The way the title track's guitar pattern mimics the steady, hypnotic rhythm of tracks on a rail.
The haunting, distant harmonica on Standing in the Rain that feels like a memory fading into the background.
