Finally after 4 years Sarah Harmer, Canadian singer-songwriter, has released a follow-up to 2000's You Were Here. This seems somewhat less emotionally personal (read: fewer overtly heartbreak songs) but remains intimate.Layered over the simple instrumentation of her songs, Harmer's clear vocals have a way of wrapping around the ear while the insightful, poetic lyrics weave into your mind.
"Almost" is the clear "pop" of the songlist on this one.
Very catchy.
