Current Joys – “East My Love” Color Vinyl

Description

Current Joys, feels familiar. It’s meant to: the 12 songs contained within divedeep into the rich folklore of the American West to tell time-worn tales of loveand trauma, heartbreak and spiritual renewal. Cast with a warm glow andfinding Current Joys’ Nick Rattigan tapping into some of his lushest, mosthigh-fidelity production to date, it’s the kind of album that listeners could seethemselves within, and, hopefully, keep close when they’re most in need ofreassurance or escapism. Rattigan wrote East My Love alone in the woods in Tennessee, withno cell reception and nobody in earshot for miles. Composed three yearsbefore Love + Pop, the experimental pop double record he released in 2023and 2024, the songs on East My Love felt too raw to confront until he felt welland truly out from underneath the cloud that had been cast over him.
