Dickies Green Plaid Jacket, is  a nostalgic collection of songs that wrestles with the people, places, memories, and former versions of ourselves we struggle to leave behind. Blending indie folk, Americana, rock, and alternative influences, the EP captures a period of searching for meaning, identity, connection, and a sense of home while embracing the uncertainty that comes with growth.

Tracked in the home where Rogan grew up, the Dickies Green Plaid Jacket sessions became both a creative retreat and an emotional homecoming. Surrounded by musicians who had evolved from collaborators into close friends, the project gradually transformed into a document of community as much as personal reflection. "It was like going on a retreat into your own soul," Rogan recalls.

 

For "Don't Walk Away," particular attention was paid to the vocal performance. Known primarily for more introspective material, Rogan pushed himself into new territory, learning how to deliver the power and conviction the song demanded. Working alongside vocal coach Jax Burn and producer Wesley Covey, he focused on finding the balance between attitude, emotion, and restraint.
