Thoughts on Album

I was pleasantly surprised by this album. I stumbled into this album while listening to a playlist for mystery reads and I heard The Approaching Night and boom I was hooked. I immediately looked up the album and had to listen to it while I was doing things at home. Next thing I knew I was saving the album to listen to at work when feeling stressed and now I just can’t help but to put it on whenever I am wanting to work but not worry about what is happening in the background. It is perfect with next and original music from the artist yet sticks to some roots with other songs. My favorite is of course the first song I heard but I have to say I enjoy them all. They have similar pacing and that is good, yet each song is unique enough that I don’t feel like I am listening to the same song over and over. I feel that I can almost tell what he is trying to express with each song. Seriously if you like piano music and want something new this is the album right now that I would suggest.

Grade: A

Would I recommend: If you like or enjoy the piano yet don’t want classical this is the album for you! I would totally recommend it.
