Fans of Jenn Champion (formerly "S") have praised her open-hearted lyrics, expertly-deployed melancholia, technical skill, and willingness to forgo conventions, but mostly they've praised her for making albums they could cry to. With the release of 'Cool Choices' in 2014, Champion made what many considered the best record of her career, and a lot of people cried to it. On 'Single Rider', Champion brings with her all those skills and vulnerabilities, but it is not a record for wallowing: it is a record for intense eye contact on the dancefloor.
