Description/Reviews
...the addition of Becca Langsford’s lead vocal on a couple of tracks is refreshing and harks back to the female vocals fronting much of 1996′s second solo foray The Meeting.  Barre-ophiles may regard Roads Less Travelled as closer in spirit to that earlier album than the more recent solo output.  ...
The emphasis is unashamedly on the song structure and an upbeat vibe throughout.
