"Harmonizing surprising vocal stylings with a dynamic assortment of instrumental tactics, Froseph takes both an aggressive and soft spoken approach with the songs on “Deep Breath.” It's both slow and fast-paced, smooth and rough, coping with deep-rooted insecurities and confronting a long-avoided past of sexual abuse, denial and their affects on everyday interactions while simultaneously constructing a sense of optimism and buoyancy. Recorded over several months in his basement bedroom with a laptop and a microphone and packaged with a plastic-free case that was hand-letterpressed in our garage."
