The brilliant, funny and sometimes utterly heartbreaking songs of Jim Andralis explore the fragile beauty of human connection and stubborn hope in the face of its loss. Andralis wrote Your Dying Wish Come True during a period of several sudden and not-so-sudden personal tragedies. The album’s nine original compositions and one cover grapple with the fears and uncertainties faced by everybody – the absence of loved ones, the absurdity of daily existence, the search for meaning – and through the very act of songwriting make a case for solace.
