"Dear friends, I hope you're doing well. 1stly, I'm dropping in to thank you for listening, coming to a show or supporting me over the years. 2ndly, I never thought I'd say this, but my 10th album is out this Friday, October 24th! I can't believe it. This album has been a return to all the meaningful things that initially brought me into music. So many dear musical friends reverberate through this record. Along with the instruments I grew up surrounded by, at folk festivals in my childhood. I’m immensely proud of these songs. They have humans at the heart of them. They are reflections on family, the remembering and welcoming of youth, treasured and fractured relationships, the ways we grow and fold into each other, the way we run, and often return. It’s been a deep deep dive. Needless to say, this body of music is incredibly meaningful to me. And I hope it resonates with you. Out there is a whole world of chaos bellowing beside a calm world of wonder, and together they spin. Somewhere in there, if for a moment, a song, a line or a note from this record reaches you, these years of finessing, ache and elation, will be worth it. For me, it already is. Thank you for being here, and for listening. Lots of love." ~ Kaurna Cronin
