Post Description

Shapes is Boston-based Sam Moss’s fourth album, released into the uncertainty of the pandemic despite the original plan of hitting the road after its release. It’s striking how fitting the first verse of the opening track Shapes Out of the Dark is: “You were unprepared/ For the way the world came down on you/ With a dull heavy blow/ That youthful glow was knocked out of you”.

What sounds like a gentle, mellow record at first, unfolds into an emotional avalanche, cleverly packaged into rhymes that roll off the tongue, an elaborately fingerpicked guitar, and vulnerable voice. Stephen Ambra on cello, Michael Siegel on bass, and Benjamin Burns on drums help transport the listeners into the intimate world that Moss is weaving around us, taking nothing away from the painful simplicity of his songs.
