2004, Fractured Discs
Robert's previous two releases, Days Like These and Earthside Down, were praised by both critics and fans as dark and elegant. On Thirteen Stories, Robert has created a sound that is slightly more open and lighter in its overall tone. First time listeners and long time fans alike will find that Robert possesses a mystic's musical sensibility, expressing small things with beauty. With reconciliation and a recent relocation from Los Angeles to Seattle dominating his life and acting as a springboard for his ideas, Robert seems truly inspired. This is an emotionally resonant work of rare distinction in the current realm of stripped down folk-rock.
