We Move marks a breathtaking and radical push forward for Irish artist James Vincent McMorrow, in what is his most expansive and ambitious work to date. Unlike his previous releases, We Move was written in constant transition. In early 2015 McMorrow decamped to Los Angeles for 4 surreal months, wanting to experience something totally alien to any way he'd ever worked before. McMorrow explains "Making this album was about changing so many things. Physically changing where I was, mentally changing how I think about life, about myself, how I think about making music. Every time I've made a record in the past, I've walked to the edge of where I've wanted to be, I've gotten scared, and I've walked back to a safe distance." It was in those 4 months that the new songs began to crystallize and come squarely into view, among other revelations (like that hiking is just walking, but in a canyon). James described this newly discovered clarity, "I just stopped worrying, stopped caring about things that simply didn't matter. Nothing in particular happened to cause that change. It just dawned on me that I was walking around trying to predict the future, and I was dulling my edges in the hopes I would fit in easier. But I wasn't happy. At all. So I changed. My instincts pushed me through this album. I started putting all of myself out there in everything I wrote."
Irish folk singer-songwriter James Vincent McMorrow began as a drummer drawn to the harsher sounds of bands such as At the Drive-In, Refused, and Glassjaw. His sound today is a mellower, more paired-down, acoustic blend of his broad musical tastes.
