Nashville collective, Lambchop have finally reached a bigger audience it is time for Josh Rouse the man who collaborated with Wagner on the Chester five track EP to step forward from the wings. Home is the follow-up to 1998 s Dressed Up Like Nebraska and features ten sublime moments of bittersweet American pop.
Directions is three and a half minutes of driving bliss, a gorgeous melody clocked in strings.
In Between and And Around are slower, softer songs which portray a more melancholy Rouse in reflective mode. Purchase Home and file it alongside your Eric Matthews and Richard Davies albums. I can now stand tall and proud and exclaim to my friends that the guy I first heard on Dawson s Creek has made one of the albums of the year.
