Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Lisa Mychols’ new record is full of easily hummable pop songs with sweet singing.
“Rocket to Mars” is sweet but with lots of attitude. Like all the songs here its irrepressible energy should put a smile on your face.
“Gonna get that Boy” sees our singer determined to do just that. The songs upbeat vibe leaves you in no doubt that she’ll succeed.
The sixties pop of “Oh! To be in love” with ringing guitars and ba-ba harmonies is effortlessly charming.
“Las Brisas Sun” is the ballad of the set and it’s an orchestrated number in the Shangri-La’s vein. Mychols calls back the classic girl group drama beautifully.
The db’s “Cycles per second” gets a joyful remake.
All in all this is the best soundtrack to sunny days I’ve heard in a long while.
