Details: The Life You Save is the third album by Flock of Dimes, the solo project of multi-instrumentalist and producer Jenn Wasner. Across the last few decades - whether it be as Flock of Dimes, as half of beloved duo Wye Oak, or via one of her many collaborations with Bon Iver, Sylvan Esso, and a sprawling list of other musical juggernauts - Jenn Wasner's extensive catalog displays her gift for balancing authenticity and directness with an unmistakable left-of-center sensibility. Her songwriting has always found her as a keen-eyed observer, a deeply empathetic and thoughtful storyteller with a skill for probing memory, heartbreak, and unhealed trauma, a shroud of syncopation or off-kilter guitar taking a song somewhere quietly prodigious. Her last solo album, the critically-lauded Head of Roses, took on heartbreak from a dualistic perspective, following a winding thread of intuition into the unknown and into healing. Her new album, The Life You Save, takes that a step further; put simply, it's the most honest, intimate and personally revealing record of Wasner's career. As heart-wrenching as they are hopeful, it's twelve tracks delve the depths of addiction and codependency, inherited and experienced trauma, and the process of finding peace in the face of others' suffering. The Life You Save is resonant, unflinchingly exposed - like a missive from the eye of a storm. But while it somehow manages to feel both viscerally raw and vulnerable, above it floats a sense of quiet peace, a sheen of hindsight, or perhaps of acceptance. It is the story of how it feels to be trapped between two worlds-the one you came from, and the one you've escaped to; about the belief that somehow, you can take the ones you love with you to this place; about the grief of realizing that the only person you can save is yourself. The Life You Save was produced by Jenn Wasner and recorded at Betty's in Chapel Hill, NC, and Montrose Recording in Los Angeles, CA, with additional production from Nick Sanborn. The album was engineered by Adrian Olsen & Alli Rogers, mixed by Adrian Olsen, and mastered by Huntley Miller.
