With tracks like "Know It All" and "Away From The Mire," Strings showcases his versatility as both a songwriter and performer, effortlessly shifting from high-energy barn burners to introspective ballads.

One of the standout moments on the album is the haunting title track "Me and My Dad," a poignant reflection on family and the passage of time. Strings' lyrical depth and emotional delivery elevate this track to truly transcendent heights.
