Description
Fifth album (third for Full Time Hobby) from Samantha Crain, following 2015â€™s â€œUnder Branch & Thorn & Treeâ€� and the 2014 album â€œKid Face.â€� Written over 4 months at the back end of winter whilst at home in Norman, Oklahoma, You Had Me At Goodbye was penned whilst Samantha was working shifts at a pizza place to save up money for touring, recording, paying bills, and as a self-confessed â€˜film nerd,â€™ binge watching movies. â€œOklahoma is beautiful but my relationship with it is complicated. There are mountains, plains, prairies, rolling hills, high deserts and plateaus, with an amazing creative community of people making beautiful visual art, interesting films and loud music. But itâ€™s extremely Christian, conservative, and whilst people say itâ€™s â€˜friendly,â€™ really, people are only friendly if youâ€™re white and arenâ€™t dressed unconventionally. I feel welcome and alienated all at once.â€� Bolstered by the visionary production of John Vanderslice (Spoon, the Mountain Goats, Strand of Oaks), mixed and engineered by Jacob Winik (The Magnetic Fields, Hot Buttered Rum), Samantha returned to the Bay Area in California to, once again, record the album in analog at Tiny Telephone Studio.
