    It took a while, but this album is certainly worth the wait. [May 2024, p.103]

    An album with plenty of lightness but lacking the whimsy or puerility we might associate with that poetic phrase.

    He’s not shaking those defining qualities on Light Verse. Instead, that distinctive voice is a foundation for towering songs, an album that grows and blooms with epic crescendos (“Yellow Jacket”), slow-burn earworm hooks (“Anyone’s Game”), and tongue-in-cheek, Shakespearean clown wisdom (“Nobody’s perfect or as dumb as their luck”).
