Listen on Spotify ↗
A mix of spacious, restrained instrumentals and quietly unsettling textures evokes the Adirondack woods, the camp’s summer stillness, and the secrets layered beneath the Van Laar family’s privilege. Three vocal songs add period color and a sense of loss without overwhelming the playlist’s focus.
