To quote Between the Lines:

"Culminating from a year and a half of writing, and a long-term relationship's fizzle, the LP is an atmospheric folky disc spiced with the flare of indie-rocker Ryan Adams - both in Locke's fragile-to-husky delivery and his gravitation toward down-beat bummers.
The influence is apparent, and that's likely because of a little obsession Locke, 28, had after he moved to New York two years ago and ended an eight-year long relationship: "Easy Tiger," Adams' 2007 album. It's full of heartbreak and despair and loneliness and everything else that mirrored Locke's mood. There's a lot of that on "Dreamtalking," with lyrics about dying inside, losing his mind and everything just totally sucking."
