Dermot Kennedy’s third album is a rootsy affair for the Irish artist. We love his story – picked up a guitar at 10, writing songs at 14 and busking on Grafton Street (Dublin) at a young age. The soaring gospel-tinged opener “The Weight of the Woods (Reprise)” is glorious, and the album explores themes of home, loss, hope, and personal reckoning across tracks like “Honest,” “Funeral,” “Endless,” and “Sycamore.” A grounded and resonant album.
