The new effort features a more of a rock feel thanks to prominent drums.
He has an appealing tenor voice and has collected a diverse set of new songs for this CD.
The CD starts with a reggae tinged Bo Diddley beat on “ Baby Talk,” and maintains the energy on “Gold.” It helps give the CD an exotic Danny Michel feel.
He slows things down slightly with “Walking Around,” which has a haunting Beatles feel too it.
“Hey Now” gets a little heavier with a more psychedelic feel.
He even adds a little Mexican influence on “ In My Skin,” thanks to the catchy horn section.
The CD ends on two slower notes on “Shipwrecked” and “Someday.”
overall, it is a solid, upbeat effort that goes down smooth.
