From the artist:

The first three songs are from the theater spectacle I was on tour with in Ann Arbor. That’s HOME, dreamt up by my old friend Geoff Sobelle. I made these songs at his prompting and have delivered them in person any time and anywhere the show has gone up since its opening in 2017. The Power Center at UMS was our first time back since March of 2020, and with this taping scheduled ahead of any official HOME business, I figured I’d get to the dusting off. “Mother’s Bones,” “Bivouac,” and “Laniakea” are their order in the show, sort of a slow zoom out from womb to earth to cosmos. As I learned not long before its writing, “Laniakea” (“Boundless Heavens” in Hawaiian) is the galactic supercluster that contains the Milky Way. I couldn’t yet face (or quite remember) the other two from the show so I finished with a mostly unrelated number which brings it all back home, for a moment, to Michigan. Thanks to all who made this happen.
