The tracks on this release are catchy and pretty and sound a bit like Wilco, all in a good way. You\u2019ll probably sing along to them in the car once you listen a couple times through, and you\u2019ll probably play a little air guitar to opening tune, \u201cWhere the Heart Is.\u201d And MOST LIKELY you\u2019ll whistle along with lead singer Joshua Cockerill on \u201cAre You Man?\u201d Other Canadian alt-folk rockers Afie Jurvanen (Bahamas), Doug Paisley and <a href=\"http:\/\/stylusmagazine.ca\/2013\/05\/14\/justin-rutledge-valleyheart\/\" target=\"_blank\">Justin Rutledge<\/a> all make appearances on this album. I figure you\u2019re gonna like this album if you enjoy good whiskey, Christmas lights on a front porch in June, and the sweet sweet sounds of electric and acoustic guitars paired together, resulting in balanced unity. This album\u2019s got that nice sticky folk-rock glue that keeps things together and it bends through notes of romance, mellow melodies and rockin\u2019 jams. I\u2019m diggin\u2019 it.
