On November 29, 2024, Will Cullen Hart left this world behind. Through some strange cosmic coincide, his passing arrived the same day as two single from the Olivia Tremor Control’s third and final album. Both and Doss – who passed in 2012 – left behind a mostly finished album. But nothing has ever been simple with this band. One could never fully declare an album finished without the band’s two front men, but musicians Jason NeSmith and Ron Kwasman were recruited to join (one of) the band’s multi-instrumentalist, Derek Almstead to complete this final chapter. The Same Place is a warm, bright, and comforting familiar black swan song from a singular and unforgettable group. Welcome back and farewell to the Olivia Tremor Control.
