A giant musical leap forward from 2011’s Paradise, ‘Complete Surrender’, produced by Colin Elliot (Richard Hawley), is an exquisite collection of soulful, sophisticated pop songs with influences ranging from Frankie Valli and Marvin Gaye to Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. From the opening track, the wonderful melancholia of “Tears of Joy” to the sweeping strings and galloping beat of “Complete Surrender” to the brassy and hook-laden “Suffering Me, Suffering You” this is the sound of a band coming into their own and creating an album brimming with confidence, skill and managing, throughout, to harness both the spirit of their influences and their constant desire to experiment.
**The CD package is a jewelcase and the LP is standard weight/single jacket with download card.
