Vinyl - Jim Andralis - I Can't Stop Trying

A city slips into a sequestered slumber unlike anything in its near 400-year history. Love sours and spirals into the unthinkable. A stray dog escapes certain death on a faraway island only to realize her destiny as a superhero. A dusted-off Neil Diamond tune feels alive and queerer than ever. Jim Andralis peels back these layers of life for all to hear, see, and experience within his independent second full-length solo album, I Can’t Stop Trying. After packing gigs and earning acclaim and looks from American Songwriter, Atwood Magazine, Brooklyn Vegan, Maximum Ink, and more, he presents an unforgettable and undeniable vision across eleven tracks.

Throughout 2020 and 2021, Jim carefully assembled I Can’t Stop Trying with producer Tom Beaujour [Nada Surf] at Nuthouse Studios. Together, they deepened the sound with a wall of guitars offset by vitally vulnerable storytelling.
