Claude says:Bear's Den pulled together these fractured, introspective pieces during lockdown—all murmured vocals and fingerpicked guitars that feel like they're being confessed in a small room—and you found your way to them in November 2020, when the mood fit perfectly. "Auld Wives" and "As The Clouds Began To Part" became your steady returns, the kind of songs that hit different depending on what was happening that week.
