You gotta put this one on in the morning on the weekend (or a day off) where you need to get some stuff around the house done, but it’s not like, you know, that important to get done. It’s just your general run of the mill, drink a cup of coffee and do shit that needs to get done so the house will function for the week kind of album. You know?

St. Silva actually went out and foraged for sounds for this record. There’s a lot of restraint and taste on display here. I love this record for setting a chill out and focus in soundscape.

My favorite album of 2025. Treads that line I like between challenging listening and unexpected sounds and regular-degular pleasurable pop music.

If you’re fan of The Weepies and Nick Drake (listen to the guitar on ‘A car wash and a new pair of pants’) you’ll like this record. Perfect accoustic chill for your Sunday morning.

The deluxe edition of son of dad includes accoustic versions of about half the tracklist, which is where Stephen Wilson Jr. really shines for me. I ain’t never seen someone play guitar like that before.
