Sometimes is the debut solo album by City and Colour, a side project of Dallas Green, one of the vocalists of the band Alexisonfire. His solo material is of the acoustic variety, and is a definite far cry from his work with Alexisonfire. At first, the majority of these songs were only available at his live shows or over the Internet through Peer-to-peer services. However, due to high demand, the songs were compiled onto a studio album, and released through Dine Alone Records. The only new song on this album that was not previously available is Comin' Home. Sometimes is certified Platinum in Canada.^[1]
