“I think that idea of inclusion, of opening yourself up to people who are different than you, that’s the fundamental basis for any kind of understanding in this world.”īrowne’s never been one to rest on his laurels, and as Downhill From Everywhere proves, he’s still pushing himself into his storied career, which includes 14 studio albums, 4 collections of live performances, and 2 “best of” compilations. “There’s a deep current of inclusion running through this record,” Browne explains. While the issues Browne tackles on the album are often sweeping and existential, he writes on a far more intimate scale, consistently zeroing in on the human experience at the heart of it all. But I now have an amazing, beautiful grandson, and I feel more acutely than ever the responsibility to leave him a world that’s inhabitable.” “I know there’s only so much time left in my life. “I see the writing on the wall,” says Browne. Clean air, fresh water, racial equity, democracy-it’s all on the line, and nothing is assured. “Time like a fuse burning shorter every day.”Īnd while such ruminations might suggest a meditation on aging and mortality from a rock icon in his early 70s, the truth is that Browne isn’t looking in the mirror he’s singing about us, about a world fast approaching a social, political, and environmental point of no return. “Time rolling away, time like a river, time like a train,” he sings. Like much of Browne’s catalog, Downhill From Everywhere is fueled by a search-for connection, for purpose, for self-but there’s a heightened sense of urgency written between the lines, a recognition of the sand slipping through the hourglass that elevates the stakes at every turn.
