Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic, driving acoustic strumming on 'Way Way Back' that creates a sense of urgent nostalgia.
The shimmering, synth-heavy production on 'Used to Be' that marks a departure from his folkier roots.
The vulnerable, stripped-back vocal delivery on the closing track 'Sadness' that resolves the album's emotional arc.
