about

This was Blake's first solo album. Blake and heartbreak absorb this record. From broken relationships to family values gone bad, loneliness to hope and back to loneliness again, Blake had a great deal to pour out when writing these songs.

This record got Blake started within the singer-songwriter world. Following this release in 2001, Blake entered the scene with his acoustic guitar and powerful, yet somber voice, opening for impressive performers like Mark Kozelek of The Red House Painters.

If you want to know more about Blake, just listen to this record. Everything you need to know is in Other People Make Me Do This. His closet is wide open.
