“Sometimes you feel stuck,” says Pete Yorn, “but then all it takes is one slight change, one subtle shift in your perception, and suddenly everything starts to flow again.” That was precisely the case with ‘Caretakers,’ Yorn’s first solo release in three years and his most spontaneous collection to date. Produced with Jackson Phillips of the celebrated indie rock band Day Wave, the album finds Yorn trusting his gut and working from instinct more than ever before, writing and recording many of the tracks start-to-finish in a prolific series of single-day sessions that balanced freewheeling exploration with careful, deliberate craftsmanship. “These songs are designed to grow with you,” explains Yorn. “They’re all anchored in particular moments, but they blast off from there, so what they mean to you on any given day might evolve. They’re built to have that flexibility.”
