Conor O’Brien is a poet who writes and records his musings into song as Villagers. This troubadour’s sixth album, That Golden Time, is chock full of dazzling melodies, pristine instrumentation, and inspiration from philosophers, poets, and playwrights. They all merge to become part of his fabric, abound on songs like “I Want What I Don’t Need.”
