About this Event
"The raw recording aspects of the sessions captured for this album done at the Denver club Hi-Dive lend the songs an immediacy and freshness to match the spirit of the songwriting. Cessna’s lyrics contain a kernel of the confessional style, but there is an exceptionally insightful and vulnerable aspect to his words that are genuine and bereft of the bravado that too many songwriters adopt as a sop to their fragile ego. In moments as on “Cool My Head” Cessna and the band are reminiscent of Leonard Cohen in his Americana aspect only to follow that up with the Kris Kristofferson-esque “Morning Song.” There’s a worldweariness to these songs that feels earned. Cessna and Brian Buck sound like they’re writing as they’re recording with contributions from Denver music luminaries like Rebecca Vera, Kim Baxter, Andy Wild, Cooper Wright and Matt Vogel. But that core of delicacy of feeling and performance run through with threads of embracing rather than avoiding the pains of various life’s heartbreaking experiences that make these songs shine and stick with you." - Tom Murphy, 2022
