When Suzanna Choffel wrote the parental-like ballad, “Go Forth,” the singer-songwriter thought the only thing she was trying to birth was her album, Hello Goodbye. But a week later, she learned she was pregnant with her first child. Not only does the record predate this momentous event, but also includes an accurate prediction of her brush with morality after leaving her child for the first time to perform in France. Choffel’s intuition coupled with her trademark lush folk-funk sound serve as a vehicle for Choffel’s detailed illustrations of her life, while her experiences illustrate the album’s central theme: how to reconcile the push-pull of opposing desires, which in Choffel’s case, manifests as a struggle to balance family life and music.
