Kevin Morby – “This Is A Photograph II” & “Five Easy Pieces Revisited”

Kevin Morby – “This Is A Photograph II” & “Five Easy Pieces Revisited”

Kevin Morby has announced a new project called More Photographs (A Continuum), a companion piece to last year’s full-length This Is A Photograph. It features six brand-new songs and three reimaginings of songs from the album. Today, he’s sharing two of those: “This Is A Photograph II” and “Five Easy Pieces Revisited.”

“If This Is A Photograph is a house that you have been living inside of…then More Photographs, perhaps, is the same home just experienced differently,” Morby said in a statement. “As if you, its inhabitant, have taken a tab of something psychedelic and now, suddenly, you’ve replaced your eyeglasses with kaleidoscopes. With every collection of songs I feel I must cast them out of me before moving onto the next project, and here I knew that what I had begun with This Is A Photograph was not finished. Releasing this is my tying a bow on that time and place in my creative life.”

Listen to those two tracks below.
