fifteen years and nine albums into his career, denison witmer is familiar with the unexpected and often quixotic intersections that can take place between life and musical career. his newest album, 'the ones who wait', is a reflection of this understanding of self and the growth that comes through life experience. it is an intimate reflection on the meandering path of life, on family and friendships, on death balanced with new life, on endings and beginnings. what began as an ep grew into a full-length album, as denison added songs that reflected the changes in the intervening year. denison's albums have always been markedly personal, each one a significant milestone in his life. but the ones who wait marks a whole new level of intimacy with listeners. getting married, starting a business, and watching his dad close the final chapter on his life have helped denison tell his own story better, to be more delicate, and confident. bringing things full circle, as he wrapped up post-production on the ones who wait, denison found out he was going to be a father too. the sound of the ones who wait indicates a new maturity in denison's musical career, a subtle sense of confidence in his voice and music. his guitar and voice sit front and center in the sound, evoking a melodic warmth reminiscent of 70s-era singer-songwriters like paul simon and jackson browne. denison reined in his well-established network of musicians to fill out the sound of the record, including cj camerieri (bon iver, rufus wainwright), devin greenwood (norah jones, amos lee), james mcalister (sufjan stevens), charles staub (melody gardot), and rosie thomas.
