Career

Amos lived with his family on a rural mountainside in St. Johnsbury, Vermont. [1] He began using the name This Is Lorelei around 2013, after he relocated to Chicago. [1] In 2015, he met Rachel Brown and formed Water from Your Eyes. [2] Amos released his studio album Box for Buddy, Box for Star (2024), through Double Double Whammy under the name This is Lorelei. [1] He later announced a deluxe version, which was released on April 25, 2025. [3] He released a follow-up, Holo Boy, on December 12, 2025. The album consists of newly-rerecorded versions of songs he wrote and released between 2014 and 2021. [4] [5]

Musical style

Jake Nevins, writing for Interview Magazine , felt that for Box for Buddy, Box for Star, Amos had decided to "let his stylistic tendencies run free", including "Postal Service-esque electro-pop" on "Perfect Hand", and, in his own words, a "Bruce Hornsby-ass piano" hook on the '80s synth-pop banger "Dancing in the Club”; [6] while Alex Hudson of Exclaim! felt that Box for Buddy, Box for Star had incorporated influences of classic country. [7]
