That Might Well Be It, Darling is a studio album by Scottish indie folk musician King Creosote, released on April 21, 2013 on Domino Records. Produced by Paul Savage, and released in conjunction with Record Store Day 2013, the album is a full-band re-recording of Creosote's limited edition vinyl release, That Might Be It, Darling (2010), and was initially released as three EPs: I Learned from the Gaels (2012), To Deal With Things (2012) and It Turned Out for the Best (2012).
Frequent collaborator Alan "Gummi Bako" Stewart sings lead vocals on the album's opening and closing tracks.
In 2010, King Creosote released a vinyl-only studio album, That Might Be It, Darling, which was only available to purchase at live performances. The album was predominately an acoustic release, with appearances from frequent collaborator Alan "Gummi Bako" Stewart and Rich Young. In December 2010, Creosote and his band entered Chem 19 studios with producer Paul Savage to record a full-band version of the album. Regarding the recording process, Creosote noted, "I wanted Darling to sound like we'd just barged in to the studio and faffed our way through it, which we kind of did, and nothing ended up the way we thought it would."
The Independent's Andy Gill gave the album a very positive review, writing: "[That Might Well Be It, Darling] may well be Kenny Anderson's best album."
All tracks written by Kenny Anderson, except where noted.
