Through a broad palette of authentic and finely crafted Americana - late-night blues, hard-luck folk, buoyant Bayou soul, barn-burning country - Etheridge's third album eloquently and emotionally looks deeply into the highly relatable quandary of 'if I knew then what I know now.' 'The arrogance of youth is a thread that winds itself through each of the songs,' Etheridge explains. 'It's about how, as we mature, perspectives in our lives change in surprising ways. A lot of things I knew for sure when I was 19 turned out to not be the case.'
