People In Cars (2021)

"Listen to the vibrant and urgent rhythm of opening track and lead single ‘Let Your Love Rain Down on Me’ and Bechtolsheimer breathy vocals bring to mind The War on Drugs. It is a feel that repeats at various stages on the album particularly on the equally compelling ‘Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride’ and ‘Steppin’ Out’. ‘In Your Arms’ takes a steer in the direction of Leonard Cohen with an almost spoken vocal and gorgeous female backing from Imogen and Ellie Mason. The lone piano accompaniment to ‘Don’t Take Your Love Away’ takes the album to its most subdued place and here Cohen morphs into Knopfler at his downbeat best. Whether it be the duet with Tess Parks and distinctive backing track on ‘So Damned Beautiful’ or the epic nine-minute closing track ‘Timeslipping’ that leaves us with a lovely warm glow as the music wends it way to a glorious climax, the album impresses from first to last and overflows with memorable tracks.Highly recommended."
