About this item

'In the Last Hour of Light' is a memoir about letting go—of people, of memories, of the desire to stop time from moving too fast. The songs were born in the wake of Hrishikesh's mother's death, as the years since push her further into the past; in the moments spent waiting for his father to recover in his hospital room; in the dream of a daughter that he will never have. There are love songs, too—but the kind of love that has the patina of a long-shared life, where there is as much time behind you as there may be left ahead.

The lineup of Hrishikesh's band included Shahzad Ismaily (Feist, Arooj Aftab), Ken Pomeroy, Mike Haldeman (Moses Sumney, Dawn Richards), Joshua Crumbly (Leon Bridges, Kamasi Washington), Oliver Hill (Kevin Morby, Broken Bells, Vagabon), Sean Mullins (Sam Evian), and Cole Kamen-Green (Beyoncé, Taylor Swift); with featured guest vocals from Iron & Wine, Fenne Lily, Ken Pomeroy, and Uwade Hart (St. Vincent), Zosha Warpeha (L'Rain), and Dustin O'Halloran.
