Most of its songs surfaced during a song-a-day writing exercise one August, partly inspired by Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet. The album was then produced and engineered entirely in-house at a lakeside retreat in Vermont, with a follow-up session in the city that winter. The result is communal and private at once: an album about grief and a transformed understanding of love in all its forms, featuring tighter arrangements and sharper songwriting than its predecessor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIt's also unabashedly Appalachian.
