Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following his massive success as a member of The Raconteurs, the Detroit-based songwriter returns to his highly polished, Beatles-esque power-pop roots. Produced by Gil Norton, the album features muscular rock arrangements, tight vocal harmonies, and instantly memorable melodic hooks. It reaffirmed his status as one of modern indie rock's most reliable and skilled pop craftsmen.
