The punters all know him as the frontman of Lagwagon. However, he has been making solo records since 2004. It’s mostly just him on acoustic but, apparently, his dog is one hell of a producer! There’s a solid flow from song to song so picking out individual songs does this record a disservice. Block off some time and have the lyrics in front of you while you let it all soak in. Will you need a box of tissues too? Perhaps. –Sean Koepenick (Fat Wreck, fatwreck.com)
