Let Me Know When You Give Up

Joey Cape doesn't want to call it an epiphany, but in recent years he's come to a realization about life - specifically, the best way to live it. It's a simple philosophy: even though we're living in very troubled times, it's important to not get bogged down by it all. That doesn't mean you have to disengage with everything, but one's survival and, by proxy, happiness both depend on being able to let go of everything a little bit. As he incorporated that mindset into his day-to-day life, it also got absorbed into the music he was making, and serves as the crux of Cape's new solo album, Let Me Know When You Give Up.
