Brett Dennen is back with a batch of new songs to inspire all the losers out there. “Hope For The Hopeless” is an upbeat lovefest from this soulful singer/songwriter who is not only John Mayor-approved (he toured with him several times), he’s also just very good at what he does. Just have a listen to what he does with Femi Kuti on “Make You Crazy”. He’s at his best though when he shakes out a moving ballad like “Heaven” or “So Far From Me”.
Dennen is from California and you hear that laidback nature all over the album. If you couple that to great melodies and a nice voice, then you’re looking at one helluva feelgood album.
Score: 7.5 out of 10
