Kirt Debique – Tell Me How You Know
Kirt Debique – Tell Me How You Know (2015)
Directed by: Neil Ferron
There’s the family you’re born into and the family you choose. Kirt Debique crafted his debut album, Things Left Unsaid, as the intersection of the two.
Conceived as a series of letters to parents and partners, siblings and strangers, its eight songs delve into themes of love, family, and loss. Although a divorce and some hard realizations incited the compositional process, the specifics of Things Left Unsaid took shape later on, after the Seattle resident could view his subject matter with perspective.
Although a specific concept and subject anchors each song, Debique intended Things Left Unsaid to be digested as a whole album. “It was always going to be an overall story, and as I worked on the record the idea of speaking to these people and going on this transformative journey became clearer and clearer.”
