Pinegrove Skylight

Skylight is the follow up to 2016s widely-acclaimed breakthroughalbum, Cardinal. The physical edition comes with an entire bonusalbum, Skylight II (the album performed acoustically).In 2017, Pinegrove moved into a rural farmhouse in upstate NewYork to make their new album Skylight, living, working andrecording together. This DIY ethos solidifies Pinegrove's positionat the epicenter of a creative community, where they've adopted a"friends first policy" when cycling through the band's touringiteration.Skylight is "an album about happiness, figuring out how to beoptimistic and realistic. To be effectively optimistic, you have toestablish relationships with darkness and disappointment. Theposition of optimism is earned." Hall's "classic American melodies"and emotionally direct lyrics, blend seamlessly with alt-countryinstrumentation and experimental rhythms of drummer ZackLevine. The band are confident in their idiosyncrasy, dropping popstructures when they no longer fit. The songs swing betweenwider extremes - whisper to full-belt and back again, treadingmid-air - and Pinegrove more exactly, more full-throatedly saywhat they've been trying to say.
