Eight Albums: From Lush to Nothing's About to Happen to Me

I've made eight studio albums since 2012. Here they are in order, with a line on each, so you know where the designs in the shop come from.

Which albums came first?

• Lush (2012): self-released, orchestral, made while I was studying composition.
• Retired from Sad, New Career in Business (2013): self-released, still orchestral, the end of my conservatory years.
• Bury Me at Makeout Creek (2014): released on November 11, 2014, on Double Double Whammy. This is where the guitars came in.

What happened after I signed with Dead Oceans?

I signed with Dead Oceans on December 22, 2015, and every album since has come out there:

• Puberty 2 (2016): guitar-driven, with "Your Best American Girl" on it.
• Be the Cowboy (2018): leaning toward pop, with more electronics.
• Laurel Hell (February 4, 2022): pop again, with electronics.
• The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We (September 15, 2023): the title you'll see in big lettering in the shop.
• Nothing's About to Happen to Me (February 27, 2026): my newest.

How did the sound change?

Roughly in three steps: the first two albums were orchestral, Bury Me at Makeout Creek and Puberty 2 were driven by guitar, and Be the Cowboy and Laurel Hell moved toward pop with electronics. People usually file all of it under indie rock and art pop.

Where do the albums show up in the shop?

In the designs: an album's title in its own lettering, a name across a heart, a flower in an arch, my name in a quiet serif. Each one is on tees, long sleeves, crewnecks and hoodies.

Tip: if you have a favourite album, search the shop for its title to see every design that carries it.
