Graham Weber (album release)

Graham Weber writes songs that hinge on the subtlest of details, entire emotional novels packed into seemingly simple scenes. The Restos frontman’s sixth solo album, Old Young Man, marks his first LP in a decade, and finds the songwriter in a reflective calm as he winds his mind through the vicissitudes of priorities in maturing relationships, growing older, and parenthood. These are soft songs, at times even wistful, as Weber’s weary vocals seem to marvel at the quiet revelations of all that changes and remains, but finds an exuding peace in lullabies and serenades to what’s worth keeping. – Doug Freeman
