"This album is a love album, but it's not all happy. Love takes work-you have to stick it out through moments of difficulty to get to the beauty on the other side," says the Albany, Georgia-based singer-songwriter Phillip Phillips of his fourth album, Drift Back. "The title speaks to me taking a step back to figure things out, and then drifting back to my life and my fans."The 10-song album is Phillips' first In five years, and his first full-length release since becoming a father. It's a self-reflective record that boasts an assortment of emotive indie-rock, and ethereally anthemic mid-tempo tracks along with Phillip's signature stirring ballads. Drift Back is produced by Phillips' longtime producer, the Nashville-based Todd Clark, a trusted collaborator since Phillips' debut.
