SSW from Maine and his backing band.  The opening title song is a nice high tech AOR cut as well as the synthy ‘Jenny’. He travels into a folk arena with the acoustic (no pun intended) ‘Fair Share’.  The rest of the album is pretty much melodic pop that doesn’t do a whole lot, however the closer ‘In California’ is an almost power ballad with its guitar flourishes.
