A new record by Kora Feder. Coming March 18, 2025.

Some Kind of Truth moves with tenderness and unmoored nostalgia; holding on to childhood friendships and letting go of aging’s expectations. “Time to figure out what the west coast did to me,” Feder starts her investigation with the opening line, breaking down her own sense of belonging and inviting the listener to join in finding the way.
