Having moved The New Yorker to rave "a triumph... You don't get many albums like this in your lifetime," Morning Phase features many of the same musicians who played on Beck's 2002 classic Sea Change--and who also currently accompany him live: Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Joey Waronker, Smokey Hormel, and Roger Joseph Manning Jr.. Preceded by the sublime first single "Blue Moon," the stunning "Waking Light," the orchestral centerpiece "Wave," and recent live debuts of "Morning" and "Unforgiven," Morning Phase harkens back to the classic harmonies, Californian song craft and staggering emotional impact of that record, while surging forward with infectious optimism.
