Vinyl LP pressing of this 2013 EP. Each song on the Weight of the Globe was written as a discrete, self-contained Folk Pop statement, but due to the real-time circumstances of recording it, the EP holds together like a collection of interconnected short stories. Taken as a whole, the songs chart a journey from love to disillusionment to heartbreak; the narrator's weariness in quot;Tiredquot; persists into quot;Things I'll Later Losequot; (quot;I've been hearing things, and I've been losing sleepquot;), while the words to quot;Back to the Riverquot; seemingly return to the same mythic river that flows through quot;In the Middle.quot;
