I’m excited to review Andrew McMahon’s new project “Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness.” It’s his first full-length release as a solo artist after the release of his EP “The Pop Underground” on 4/30/2013.

Track Listing

  1. Canyon Moon - A very dancey, pulsing song with a nice beat. It has a straightforward piano piece in it, nothing too earth-shattering.
  2. Cecilia And The Satellite - The most catchy, pop-focused song on the album with some nice pulsating bass and synth.
  3. High Dive - My second favorite song on the album. Such a great beat and an awesome line in the chorus “dancing to someone else’s song.”
  4. All Our Lives - His dreamy voice is dreamy.
  5. See Her On The Weekend - This is definitely the best track on the album. This is signature Andrew McMahon. The lyrics are very focused on love and waiting patiently for a loved one while away. The piano track is noticeable and outstanding.
  6. Black And White Movies
  7. Driving Through A Dream - This song also makes me think 80s. :)
  8. Halls - Not as upbeat… Meh. :)
  9. Rainy Girl - A very slow, simple and old-fashioned love song, and the piano melody sounds like it’s from an 80s song.
  10. Maps For The Getaway

Anybody else buy the album (lowest price I’ve seen is on Amazon) or see him live?

Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness is currently touring with Hunter Hunted, Junior Prom, and Fences.
