HEAL is an album about clinging to music when you’ve got nothing else left, about the way your favorite songs can help you escape from reality’s most painful moments but also help you muster the strength to get back out there and face those moments. In that sense, it is an echo. A lot of troubled people will undoubtedly be turning to Timothy Showalter’s latest in the same way he turned to Smashing Pumpkins or Songs: Ohia in his time of need. Whatever they’re facing, they have his sweet tunes to play. –Chris [LISTEN]
