Moments Worth Listening For

The iconic, percussive ukulele intro of the title track that immediately sets a rhythmic, driving pace.

The soaring, effortless transition into falsetto during the chorus of From Afar, creating a sense of distance and longing.

The gentle, finger-picked intimacy of Snaggletooth that breaks the upbeat momentum for a vulnerable, quiet center.
