Fifty-word review

Nothing Is Wrong

8.7 out of 10

A sophomore release that feels more like one compiled by elder statesmen of the folk rock music scene, Taylor Goldsmith and his bandmates have produced one of the most supremely listenable albums of the year. So undeniably sticky you can hit play and let it repeat for days on end.

Reminds us of Tom Petty | Elvis Costello | the best folk rock album of the year
