The end of the world might be looming, but according to indie-pop multi-instrumentalist Eve Parker Finley, it might not all be so bad. Based on a thought she had during the pandemic about people no longer being able to conceptualize a future, Finley offers an album full of reassurances that whatever’s coming, we’ll all face it together.

With lush string arrangements and classical interludes pushing up against dance-pop synths, Finley morphs into different characters to imagine futures that are as hopeful as possible, given the circumstances – regarding both our societal malaise and her own journey as a trans woman.
