People I Don’t Know is a haunting, ethereal journey through shared grief and unexpected human connection. Inspired by the funeral of a near-stranger, Sketches of Carol (Sylvia Schmidt) captures both the awkward tenderness of mourning and the transcendent unity it can bring. With layered, delicate vocals and a stunning cello performance by Stephanie Tress, the track moves from fragile intimacy to emotional crescendo. It’s a deeply personal and beautifully crafted piece that resonates long after it ends—an ode to memory, presence, and community.
