"Starter Home" was originally released November 2, 2018 on US-based label, No Quarter. From Pitchfork, at the time: "For a decade, Canadian singer/songwriter Doug Paisley has turned quiet, specific moments into inquiries on life’s larger struggles. On his 2010 breakthrough, Constant Companion, Paisley used the inevitability of endings to explore understanding oneself, the only possible “constant companion.” For 2014’s Strong Feelings, he mulled death and its uneasy relationship with life, or how their juxtaposition ripples into every wave of existence. And now, on his fourth album, Starter Home, Paisley details the chasm that separates what poet Seamus Heaney described as “getting started” and “getting started again.” These songs examine how the person you are never truly aligns with the person you want to be, especially when you stumble upon a sticking point that’s hard to move past." 1 Starter Home 2 No Way To Know 3 Dreamin' 4 Easy Money 5 Mister Wrong 6 Drinking With A Friend 7 Waiting 8 This Loneliness 9 Shadows
