Four stars

The simplicity of Messersmith’s “Scientists” and “Beautiful Children” provide harmonies emanating warmth. His poignant voice delivers broken hearts and solitude, yet leaves you wanting to replay the album again and again. See Jeremy Messersmith live Thursday, Aug. 9 at the Melody Inn at 8:30 p.m.
