Backed not by labels, but by his own sweat, toil, and the support of loved ones, this record is an unfiltered expression of a working-class artist. Galvo’s songs resonate with a raw, unfiltered emotion. They possess a delicate vulnerability that threatens to shatter, yet also exude a confident, full-bodied sound.
