ALBUM FACTS :
DESCRIPTION :
Hiss Golden Messenger’s I’m People is a vivid, deeply human album shaped by rupture, renewal, and long stretches of American wandering. Written between Bolinas, the North Carolina Piedmont, and a Santa Fe motel room, the songs trace M.C. Taylor’s search for meaning across inner and outer landscapes.
The record moves through heartbreak, ageing, fatherhood, desire, disillusionment, and the hard-won hope that remains when optimism feels thin. Produced with Josh Kaufman at Dreamland — a decommissioned church outside Woodstock — the music carries the warmth of musicians playing live together, with a natural, lived-in feel that prizes connection over polish.
Guest contributions from Bruce Hornsby, Sam Beam, Marcus King, Sara Watkins, Amy Helm, Eric D. Johnson, and members of Dawes deepen the album’s emotional range without overwhelming its core intimacy. I’m People feels immediate and open-hearted, built for shared listening and recognition — songs that sit close, sing easily, and reflect the strange mix of heartbreak, dark humour, and stubborn hope that comes with simply being a person.
