Patrick Watson - Uh Oh

“I lost my voice ‘cause I talked too loud,” mourns Patrick Watson in “Silencio,” Uh Oh’s opening track. It’s a true story—the singer-composer wasn’t sure if his damaged vocal cords would ever heal. Though he’d recovered in time to make the record, he wisely kept his cast of plan B singers, resulting in a highly collaborative album that frequently explores the thematic avenues surrounding voice and voices in their abundance or absence.
