Notes to an Absent Lover

As well as singer/guitarist Barzin Hosseini, the album features vocalist Melissa McClelland, vibraphone player Robbie Grunwald, and pedal steel guitar player Burke Carroll.

Exclaim! writer Rachel Sanders viewed the album as Barzin Hosseini moving to "a more nakedly melodic songwriting style", calling it "a dreamy, elegant stunner of a folk pop release". PopMatters' Dominic Umile gave it 5 stars out of 10, describing it as "straightforward and dry folk pop, with little decoding needed".
