Limited edition coloured vinyl, available exclusively through independent retailers,
including a bonus 7” from Hiss Golden Messenger – I’m People. The brand-new
album from Hiss Golden Messenger and the first release with Chrysalis Records.

I’m People is a vivid, deeply human album born from a period of rupture, renewal,
and vast American wandering. Written across Bolinas, the North Carolina Piedmont,
and a Santa Fe motel room, the record traces the artist’s search for clarity through
landscapes both external and internal. These songs move through heartbreak, aging,
fatherhood, desire, disillusionment, and the hard-won hope that remains after the
spirit has been scraped bare. Produced with Josh Kaufman at Dreamland, a
decommissioned church outside Woodstock, the album carries the warmth of
musicians playing live in a circle, stained-glass light filtering across guitars, drums,
and upright bass. Contributions from Bruce Hornsby, Sam Beam, Marcus King, Sara
Watkins, Amy Helm, Eric D. Johnson, and members of Dawes enrich a sound world
that feels immediate, vulnerable, and fully alive.

“I'm People is an intensely human record, and so one that needed to feel immediate,
vulnerable, and fully dancing; something you could touch, sing along to, know about,
recognize, relate with. I know what the record is to me and I bet it's not so dissimilar
from what it's about to you, at least in the broad strokes: The heartbreak and
exhilaration, the absolute black comedy of being a person on this razor's edge that is
America circa 2025. What other choice do we have than to be hopeful?” - MC Taylor
on I’m People.
