LP on Limited Teal Vinyl. becalmyounglovers is as much a return as it is a farewell. Phil Moore\x27s first Bowerbirds album since 2012 is an artifact of transition, a domino effect of doors closing and Moore stumbling headfirst into the uncertainty of what comes after a life fundamentally changes. Like a polaroid slowly swimming into focus, becalmyounglovers reconciles the memories of yourself in relation to another person, and then what\x27s unearthed when you\x27re left to face your identity alone and which one of those selves is true? Written and recorded mainly in an isolated cabin hand built by Moore and his ex\-partner, out in Siler City, North Carolina, becalmyounglovers chronicles a long\-term relationship\x27s death rattle, inevitable breakup, and its immediate aftermath and Moore\x27s getting to understand himself better in the process. These songs don\x27t trudge through upheaval \-\- instead, they float, still sanguine and light in the face of plans gone awry. But, true to Moore\x27s songwriting, the heaviness of the subject matter still glimmers with an innate hopefulness. becalmyounglovers is like wading deep into the psyche of a potential identity crisis, but there\x27s no darkness here instead, Bowerbirds plumbs the depths with the windows open, a breeze flowing in, a smattering of sunlight across the floor and the sounds of outside filtering in, the promise of a new morning right around the corner.
