Aaron,

eight songs in and I can already hear/see certain things taking shape for your style. One thing I like is the fact you're not afraid to use "implied" rhymes, thatis to say, your songs don't really need hard rhymes like moon/june......though one has to be careful there, because too many implied rhymes can sound a bit like a poem with music attached.

I'm hearing that americana style along the lines of Freedy Johnston or JamesMcmurtry here, two of my plain spoken favorites.

production wise, headphone mixing can easily fool you.....if that's all you have available, I'd at least make sure the overall eq is flat and go from there to start, then burn a quick cd and listen in the car and take quick notes.....like (too crisp/too muddy) ect. this mix sounds like a lot of lower mid going on.....on MY headphones anyway.... smile

well done, two more and you reach the ten song milestone.
