Recommended if you like: Rilo Kiley, Elliott Smith
From their press kit:
Already revered by one of music’s most passionate fanbases as the bassist for wildly successful indie-popquartet Rilo Kiley, Pierre is finally ready to share his own “little piece” in a series of poignantand engaging plaintives on love, life and the reflective moments that weave throughout them.
Standout Tracks: “Shame on Love","Never Thought”
Worth a second listen?:
If you’re a Rilo Kiley fan, this is required listening. I’m a fan of the Rilo Kiley side projects of Jenny Lewis and Blake Sennett (Elected) and you can add Pierre de Reeder’s solo album to the list. I love this album’s sunny melodies and personal yet not sappy lyrics.
