Reliever is the second studio album from Canadian singer-songwriter William Prince, released February 7, 2020 on Six Shooter Records.[1]
Prince has described the album as about emotional transitions, encompassing the span between the death of his father prior to the release of his debut album Earthly Days and Prince himself becoming father to his own first child a couple of years later.[2] He has stated that while the songs were written during a difficult period in his life, he "borrowed from his future happiness" to make an album that was more hopeful and optimistic than he was feeling at the time.[1]
The album was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee, and Winnipeg, Manitoba, and was produced by Dave Cobb and Scott Nolan.[3]
