Barely past 20 years of age, Andy serves up a collection of new-folk pop songs that begin and end with sincerity and meaning, patiently unwinding a theme of memories and moving on. It is a remarkably mature display of craft by a young man writing beyond his years. Citing recent influences such as Hayden and Wilco, Darker Days combines a handful of distinct flavors, creating an incredible collision of songs that are all at once Sufjan and Sam Beam, and a kid doing nothing to mask an old soul.
