“GpYr is somewhere between a concept and a photo album,” Joplin says of his new full-length record. “A gap year doesn’t necessarily mean one year–in my case it was more like ten–it just meant shifting my priorities to other things. I called this record GpYr because it has a lot to do with the story I was telling, and it also applies to me in this very moment. My daughter has now graduated college and isn’t too much older than I was when these songs take place. For me, GpYr is like liminal space–it’s actively absorbing what was and what’s next. It is a time and a place of transition, it’s an ever-changing circumstance that waits in motion, unknowing what can be learned but absorbing knowledge nonetheless. Along the way there is transformation–if we leave it alone.”
