You found it! It's a joy. It's a discovery. It's a gem. A consistent catchy collection of true Indie songs delivered with above average professionalism and musicianship. Withstands the listen-five-times test - I've heard this over 12 times and just want more. Controlled vocals and varied instrumentation and tempo. Some fine acoustic but the banjo leads the fast 'Asleep At the Wheel', a piano dominates on 'From California' which interludes with some interesting percussion. 'Handing on For Hope' blends in a subtle organ weave. The production quality is first rate but without the gimmicks of over crafting. There is not one song on this album that I'm inclined to skip. With whom might they be compared? Difficult! John Lennon? Most memorable tracks are 'All our Vice', 'Hover Near Fame', and 'Spoils of the Spoiled'. No, the artist did not pay me to write this review. Quality like this deserves comment.
