M. Lockwood Porter
Amid the chaos, Sisyphus Happy — recorded by Porter alone, holed up in the home he made with his wife during the pandemic, and co-produced by acclaimed Americana singer-songwriter John Moreland — is grounded by an unmistakable feeling of peace. Vulnerable yet unafraid, world-weary but full of wonder, it’s the sound of a person who has stared into the void, faced some demons, and returned from the brink with acceptance and purpose.
