Starboard View consists of 9 original tracks all written by
Kaley Kinjo. The album touches on a diverse and wide
range of styles from the moody minor spaghetti-western
feel of ‘Lost But Not Gone’, and the catchy upbeat fun of
‘Kangaroos’, to the whimsical pondering of the ballad ‘Wild
Prairie Rose’. “Starboard View” is a collection of
emotions, and a sentimental study in leaving from the
places we call ‘Home’ and the situations that ask us to do
so. It is a stark reflection of the pull that we feel to venture
out, and the longing we feel for ‘somewhere else’.
Those familiar with Kaley’s original work will be surprised
to find a more serious and darker tone to many of Kinjo’s
songs while still maintaining the playful vibes that he’s
known for in others.
