It has been a long time coming for Hikes to release new music. In every way, Winnower finds them stripped down to the truest version of themselves — built around the folk practice of separating grain from chaff. It's a record that lives in a meditative space where questions of belonging, of place, and of vulnerability slowly come into focus. This week, Nay and Chris of Hikes walk us through Winnower track by track, and talk about how their time away transformed not just their sound, but the way they hold the work altogether.
