The Flenser

Listen to "Property", the first single from Kathryn Mohr's second full length album Carve out April 17 on The Flenser.

Written over the course of five years and recorded over several weeks in a single-wide mobile home in the Mojave Desert, the album centers on love experienced as a form of grief, not as an aftermath of loss, but as a condition of intimacy itself.
