Singer-songwriter, producer en multi-instrumentalist Kris Delmhorst zorgt al sinds haar debuutalbum Five Stories voor erg knappe albums. Ze balanceert hierbij steeds op de grens van (indie) folk, country en vleugjes (indie) pop. Gebruik dus maar de lading 'americana' om haar muziek te omschrijven. Hoogstwaarschijnlijk een grote onbekende voor muziekliefhebbers bij ons en daar mag wel verandering in komen. Op Something to Show zingt ze zachtjes boven haar Rhodes-klanken en de andere spaarzaam ingezette instrumenten uit. Weetje? Kris is getrouwd met Jeffrey Foucault, die andere klasbak in het genre die gewoonlijk onder de radar blijft.

"... the first single (...) is a song for all my fellow insomniacs, a song of lying wide awake in the middle of the night, floating out of your body like the ghost of a dream, searching out across the dark lake of sky, hoping all the inner work and midnight worries will ultimately get you somewhere. The astrally gorgeous backing vocals on this one are by my dear friend/favorite Canadian, Rose Cousins.
Listen, share, stream, buy, play it loud in your car at night; whatever you do to make new music welcome in the world! And please enjoy this video of four bundled-up musicians in a big drafty studio, working together to bring this song to life shot by Louise Bichan."
