Album · Traditional Folk · 2015 · Chris Dupont Music
On this poignant sophomore album, Chris Dupont's gentle, rainy-day melodies feel as light as their content is heavy. The Michigan singer/songwriter skirts a breakdown over brooding piano on "Holding It Together," questions a relationship amid reverberating guitar on "Cut the Tie," and explores fears of fatherhood to the flowery fingerpicking of "Bedside." Guitar harmonics glint throughout, while a somber violin clings to the singer's melancholic baritone as if stalking his every word. On rousing closer "Antiphon," Dupont makes peace with all the demons in a hail of hallelujahs.
