Kasey Anderson’s To The Places We Lived marks a raw, reflective farewell from the songwriter as he bookends two decades of storytelling with a final album. Guests include Eric Ambel and Kurt Bloch.

Kasey Anderson’s To The Places We Lived is a parting message from a songwriter who’s spent two decades mapping out the spaces between rock, Americana, and alt-country. This release, which Anderson calls “a sort of spiritual sequel” to his 2010 album Nowhere Nights, is his final chapter – an endpoint he chose to write for himself. "I wrote To The Places We Lived to be my last record," Anderson reflects. "I thought a lot about Nowhere Nights while we were making it because this record picks up where Nowhere Nights left off. It's a sort of spiritual sequel, I suppose. I wanted my name on this one. That’s my voice, those two records. That’s my life.”

With a career marked by both solo and collaborative projects, Anderson's voice has stayed true, raw, and unmistakably his own. His solo discography reads like a personal archive – from Dead Roses (2004) to Reckoning (2007), through Nowhere Nights (2010), and most recently Daytrotter Sessions (2021). Alongside his solo work, Anderson has also joined forces with the Honkies for Heart Of A Dog (2011) and Let the Bloody Moon Rise (2012) and released From A White Hotel (2018) with Hawks And Doves.

To The Places We Lived accompanies a final run of tour dates, offering fans a last chance to experience Anderson’s music live. And along the way, the stage will host a songwriter saying goodbye to a body of work that’s spanned life’s roads, unflinchingly real and bare.

Celebrated poet, essayist, and cultural critic Hanif Abdurraqib captures the album's essence, noting, “What I love about Kasey Anderson is what you will undoubtedly grow to love... There is a world within [To] The Places We Lived that feels like it’s already yours, in a spiritual sense.”

With guests including Eric Ambel and Kurt Bloch, the album itself is a long, sometimes interrupted journey, beginning in April 2019, with stops and starts that paralleled the world’s own upheaval. "This is it," Anderson points out, framing the album as his final piece in a musical career rooted in sharing stories from his life and heart. Like Nowhere Nights, To The Places We Lived is both deeply personal and timelessly open, weaving themes of time, joy, and the winding road we all travel.
