Lyrically, Rough River is again close to the classics, using landscapes and natural imagery to paint tales of love, life, loss and grief. The current favourite line I have stumbled across so far is from ‘Sometimes’, which reads:

’And sometimes I can’t care to find 
what it is that makes me feel good about this life.
And I’ll float back to you
on a raft, steady and true,
and you say,
maybe it’s meant to be that way?’

You can buy the album via Bandcamp as a download or as a lovely limited-edition CD (designed by Sarah Hopfer).
