This is based heavily on roots music. It's of the stripped down, intimate variety, though. Most of this stuff is acoustic guitar based music that lands in the range of folk and country music. There are a couple songs that have electric instrumentation. Some of the tracks are live recordings. Overall, people who enjoy folk based mellow sounds should find plenty here that will satisfy them.

Percussion and female backing vocals are added to the arrangement on this cut. The country sound is less pronounced here. This lands more in the vein of folk rock. It's a fun cut with nice energy.

Here Kendrick tries his hand at this classic old school tune. I like this rendition quite a bit. With just a bit of percussion this is essentially just guitar and voice. It's an intimate arrangement and works quite well in a gentle way.

I like this rather soulful number. It has a "happy" sort of vibe. The arrangement isn't a big difference from the rest of the music here, but it doesn't feel tired or redundant by any means.

I can hear a live audience on this cut. The arrangement is bit fuller here. The audience is too loud at times, though. I like the flowing, soaring kind of vibe on this cut. The female vocals add a lot. This is definitely one of the highlights of the set. It really manages to rock at times.

Folk music is the idea here. This arrangement gets more involved and powerful. Violin really adds a lot to it. That elevated presence raises this one to "standout" status on the disc. The electric guitar soloing later is a great touch.

Starting with just voice, this is more of a rock song. There is a definite old school rock and roll vibe to this thing. There is some good energy here along with some catchy hooks.

I like the picked guitar on this number quite a bit. It's intricate and pretty. This is strictly an acoustic guitar solo. It's also one of the highlights.

Another live recording, this starts with the female vocals over the guitar. Again the audience is too loud. Who goes to a live show to sit around and have loud conversations? It's rude and stupid. Sorry, I will get off my soap box now. This is a mellow cut that makes a nice use of the contrast between the male and female voice. It's essentially a folk song.

Another folk number ends the set. This has a good energy and fun vibe to it. It's solid, but perhaps not one of the highlights. There is some country in the mix on the tune.
