Beginning the life of a traveling musician by putting their home on wheels and taking to the highways in a van, Olive Klug (they/them) take their place among a long history of troubadours who have built a following by going door-to-door, street corner to stage. Amassing 20 million+ streams on Spotify, 200,000 TikTok viewers, and 100,000 Instagram followers, Olive Klug delivers a second album with the recent release, Lost Dogs. Addressing their day-to-day adventurers of a recently single musician, Olive Klug lists accomplishments by citing who can ‘prove they had the most fun’ through ‘tiny screens and Spotify streams trying to prove to the other that we won’ in “Cold War”. The picture fills out with real life contributions such as ‘smoking too much weed’ and ‘changes friends’ in a story that addresses the day after love has left the building. The song, and its story, are a template for Lost Dog as Olive Klug opens a personal diary for the cuts on the album, penning the tunes with a vulnerability that stands tall so that its successes and scars can be seen within an audio framework.
 
A heartbeat thump is the rhythm for “Fleeting” as Lost Dog offers gentle finger-picking support for the rear-view visions of “One Dimension” while a rapid-fire vocal delivery matches the frenetic tangle of notes and runaway beats in “Opposite Action”. Opening Lost Dog with a one-on-one conversation, Olive Klug begins the album’s song cycle with “Taking Punches from the Breeze”, the story becoming a shared experience with its fellow humans as familiar scenarios are staged in the tale. Acoustic guitar strums mimic the iron rails virtually humming underneath “Train of Thought” while Olive Klug admits to limitations as they maintain a pride in for their own life in “What to Make of Me” as reverie-born rhythms wrap comfortably around the Lost Dog title track.
