George Stanford writes good, accessible pop music. It’s singer-songwriterly without being too strummy-strummy la-la-la. This album didn’t hit me immediately. I first thought of it as the aural equivalent of a summer read: light, entertaining, well-enough done, and easily put aside. But it’s definitely catchy; after the third spin, I caught myself playing bits of tunes in my head with startling regularity. “Down River” comes to me fairly often – it’s a little dark and dreamy – great for foggy fall days.
