Song: Love is What You Leave
Reviewer: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Positive Comments: A nice production. Very traditional sound. The instrumentation is beautiful. Love the live tracks, violin, acoustic and electric guitars all are mixed well. The song blows up at :57 and turns into a beautifully orchestrated piece. A simple hook which leaves the listener singing it after the song is finished. That’s the sign of a good songwriter. Very solid recording and performances from the musicians.
Constructive Comments: The entire mix is a little heavy in the higher frequencies and lacks a good solid and warm bottom end. One drawback for me is that the overall character of this song is too familiar and sort of been done. It reminds me of the great Glenn Campbell. I felt like all the notes were not executed as well as I like to hear that’s why the 3. All the great instruments are there so I don’t know what to suggest to maybe give it a little more originality. It is a nice song though so congrats!
