Title: Norm Artist: Andy Shauf Label: Anti Product Type: VINYL LP UPC: 045778781614 Genre: Rock Release Date: 2023-02-10 Number of Discs: 1 Additional Details: GATEFOLD LP JACKET
Vinyl LP pressing housed in gatefold jacket. 2023 release. Hailed as "a gifted storyteller" (NPR Music) for 2016's The Party and 2020's The Neon Skyline, Andy Shauf writes albums that unfold like short fiction, full of colorful characters, fine details and a rich emotional depth. With Norm, however, Shauf has slyly deconstructed and reshaped the style for which he's been celebrated, elevating his songwriting with intricate layers and perspectives, challenging himself to find a new direction. Under the guise of an intoxicating collection of jazz-inflected romantic ballads, his storytelling has become decidedly more oblique, hinting at ominous situations and dark motivations.
