“Providing an insight to Kevin Morby as an artist, Sundowner is essential and engrossing”
“When Kevin Morby jarringly moved from Los Angeles to his hometown of Kansas City, he expected the isolation and simplicity of his new house to help him work creatively, and he was right: the widening days and heaving, breathing sunsets inspired his newest album Sundowner. This introspective folk album records the divine of the everyday. “[Sundowner] is a depiction of the nervous feeling that comes”
“Kansas City-based seeker and singer/songwriter Kevin Morby, quietly quite prolific with six solo albums to his name, has long been concerned with heaven, earth and the intersection of the two—life and its limits. “Oh, I am on a ride / Measure the distance in time / And as sure as I was born / I will die,” he sang on the final track from his 2013 solo debut Harlem River, making peace with mortality”
“An indie folk record with tinges of country rock, the songwriter’s latest album pays tribute to his Kansas City home with a vision of the Midwest that feels mythical and enormous.”
“intimate, lo-fi musings on love and isolation”
