The Only Place I Know

A raw, acoustic-leaning portrait of suburban youth. These six tracks capture the unpolished, earnest beginnings of a band finding their voice in the rust belt.

It's the sound of the band before they got loud, just raw feelings and acoustic guitars in a suburban bedroom.

A quiet, suburban ache that feels like looking through an old yearbook in a cold room.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the brief, atmospheric opener Fremont into the sprawling, melodic yearning of Walking Distance.
The raw, unvarnished vocal delivery in the final minutes of The Night You Showed Me Hallelujah! as the instrumentation swells.
The intimate, almost conversational acoustic strumming that anchors the middle of Common Weather.
