Our Take

RICHMOND FONTAINE's latest offering, "Don't Skip Out On Me," is a rollercoaster of emotions packed into a delightfully mellow folk-rock package. Turning moments of heartache and introspection into catchy tunes, this album is like a warm hug from your favourite bartender after a long night of existential dread.

Lead singer Willy Vlautin's gravelly vocals are the perfect vehicle for the raw honesty present in every track, transporting listeners to dusty desert highways and dimly lit dive bars with each note. The band's signature Americana sound is present in full force, with twangy guitars and melancholic melodies that will have you reaching for your trusty old flask.

Standout tracks like "I'll Take Out The Papers" and "Don't Breathe It To Me" showcase the band's storytelling prowess, weaving tales of love, loss, and redemption that feel both deeply personal and universally relatable. It's the kind of album that you'll want to listen to on a rainy day while sipping whisky neat, contemplating the complexities of the human experience.

"Dont Skip Out On Me" may not have the flashy production or radio-friendly hooks of some of its contemporaries, but what it lacks in polish it more than makes up for in authenticity and emotional depth. So don't skip out on this album - give it a listen, pour yourself a drink, and let RICHMOND FONTAINE take you on a journey through the highs and lows of life. You won't regret it.
