Brett Dennen - Loverboy

Brett Dennen - Fourth studio effort from the L.A. singer/songwriter finds him in a an upbeat mood and, as he happily puts it, with "nothing left to prove"...writing songs that are "catchy, hooky and had addictive singalongs" // Release: Loverboy (April 12, Dualtone) //  Quote: "I’ve been the new kid on the block and now that phase is over. I get to start all over again, relax, and refocus. And what I’m focused on is having fun." // Sound like: There's fresh, easy confidence at work here...the songs move with a greater emphasis on a nimble danceability alongside the traditional Dennen focus on a sweetly turned out melody... // What we like: the bright, shiny feel and infectious harmonies of "Surprise, Surprise"...the early-Van Morrison-like, roll-down-the-windows feel of "Sydney I'll Come Running"...
