I thought this Cd was pretty interesting. It seemed like quite a few of the songs sounded very similar to one another. Almost sounded like Jack Johnson meets Brett Dennen. There is certainly some singer song writing going on, but with thier own unique style. Track 2 is really solid, but my favorite song on the album clearly was "They Stay Sayin." I would like to see them get into more instruments and see how their music could blossom. Seems like they have alot of potential here, just not using it
