With his easygoing style, Chris Milam has crafted songs to get you through the current atmosphere of stress.
“Phoenix” is one of my favorites to listen to because the performances really bring out the story; you get to hear everyone in full-form. Ultimately, I think it’s the most hopeful song on Meanwhile. It would’ve been a nice closer–on a different album. “I can’t steer my story straight,” after all. — Chris Milam
