CONNOR YOUNGBLOOD-CHEYENNE

Provides lots of pleasure but falls short.

After having listened to most of this album on YouTube, I don't regret doing so. Connor Youngblood is a talented musician, playing everything from harp to tabla and even layering AutoTune on "Yellowknife"-which I had never heard of and don't think I would have liked the idea before hearing that track.

However, there are times when the album falls short, particularly on the title track with it's use of AutoTune in normal mode. There are also tracks like "Pizza Body" and "Lemonade" that don't really go anywhere, as much as some of them, like "Lemonade", want to.

Overall, I'm glad I found this guy but I don't want to shell out for his music.
