CONVINCED FRIEND is the project of Providence-based Songwriter A.S. Wilson. Recorded at Big Nice Studios, their self-titled album (Released November '22 with Relief Map Records) embraced members of Nova One, and Burr resulting in a collection of largehearted indie rock songs that Various Small Flames has called:
"an intimate and attentive sound in the lineage of Jason Molina and David Bazan... pushing beyond the melancholic surface so common to indie rock, looking instead to explore the deep possibilities beneath."
The songs are marked by Wilson's time spent growing up in oilfield towns south of New Orleans - focused on the little indignities of love and work, with the sense of impermanence that comes with a home slowly sinking underwater.
