Kade gives us a deep and humanistic insight into his own life, demonstrating a perceptive and profound standpoint with a dark, self-deprecating sense of humour.
"The album takes us on a deeply personal journey of discovery. It feels like a balance sheet weighing out the reasons to stay positive in life against the reasons to succumb to the darkness and doubt that overtakes everyone's mind at some point in life" - Jennifer Weidman (
