Where this album fits
- Career context
- Upon releasing 'Carrie & Lowell' in 2015, Sufjan Stevens was transitioning from the grand orchestration of 'The Age of Adz' (2010) to a more personal and stripped-down sound. This album marked his return to folk roots, following a period of artistic exploration and experimentation, and it was deeply influenced by the death of his mother.
