Moments Worth Listening For

The transition from the spoken word intro into the lush, layered harmonies of Poetic Sex.

The infectious, mid-tempo groove of Backyard Party that perfectly captures a summer afternoon.

The unexpected country-soul fusion on the closing tracks that shifts the album's entire palette.
