Full Memories is the follow-up to Waxing Nostalgic, which was released in February, and it's the second installment in a trio of lunar-themed EPs.
Hexum says, “Full Memories contains five tunes that veer further into Americana/bluegrass instrumentation. The opener, ‘Just to See You Smile’ is a simple acoustic romantic tune about wanting someone's enjoyment of life to rub off on you. It features Nick Drake-style finger picking and Mellotron flute.
"For the writing of this one I was joined by a good friend, the extremely talented Alan Hampton. ‘Careless’ is a full-on bluegrass jam about coming to grips with one's carelessness. It’s fun to hear how bluegrass can rip with punk intensity. Definitely new territory for me.
"‘Where I Belong,’ co-written with my sister, is about how just like many objects in life, people need to find their match to feel complete. It’s a slow baritone acoustic based song that is meant to be played on the porch in the evening.”
He has also released lyric videos for all five songs.
The third and final EP, Waning Time, will be released this summer.
