This EP is quite cool. It has a great blend of classic soul and jazz sounds with modern music. Each song has its own flavor. Yet, there is a timeless sort of pop music vibe at play, too. Overall this is quite an effective set.
The music on this is packed with blues and jazz elements. Some of the vocals here land in modern pop music territory. Others are much meatier. There is a definite quirky, artistic quality to this in some ways.
Too Much to Say I Love You (+ Danii Roundtree)
A song that is about an illicit love affair, this has an old-school soul sound to it for a lot of the duration. The guitar solo and some other things bring a bit of a modern hard rock element, though.
Salty Dish (+ LeeSun)
This has a sound that feels tied to the swing revival school of music. It's another killer cut. This is both classic and modern in tone.
Party (+ Kim Jennett)
There is still some soul and jazz built into this. Overall, though, it's much more of a creative modern rock sound that drives it. This is a powerhouse and another killer cut.
Rock Karaoke (+ Trisha McTeague)
The arrangement on this is perhaps the most modern of the set. The cut is a catchy one. It has a great energy and vibe. It's one of the standouts. Given the competition, that says a lot.
