Denison Witmer returns with a new collection of ten vibrant and pensive folk-pop songs recorded and produced by Sufjan Stevens, his long-time friend and collaborator. Anything At All finds Denison in a suitably reflective mood, mining sublime revelation from an ordinary, domesticated life. Topics like bird watching, carpentry, houseplants, and hiking offer insights into bigger, existential questions about life, death, meaning, and purpose. What are we doing with the precious time we have left on this earth? Whether its spent making clocks, gathering berries, planting trees, or putting the kids to bed at night, these songs suggest that a life lived with thoughtfulness and care can lead to deeper joy and fulfilment.

Recorded sporadically over a period of two years, Anything At All was primarily created at Sufjans Catskills studio during the pandemic, with additional sessions recorded by Andy Park, in Seattle, WA. Contributors include Stevens and Park as well as Sam Evian, Hannah Cohen, Sean Lane, and Keenan O’Meara, amongst others. The albums musical aesthetic marries Denisons folksy, Mennonite vibe with Sufjans signature bells and whistles: lush strings and woodwinds, womens choir, and an occasional jazzy saxophone weave their way around Denisons matter-of-fact vocals and acoustic guitar. These are simple folk songs with bursts of awe and wonder.
