“Sleeping With the Lights On” and “You’re the Ocean” are more than just singer/songwriter guitar-and-vocal pieces, as there are nice string and drum loop production touches. “I Was Just Thinking” is mainly Teitur and his guitar, and has a tenderness like Simon or Taylor and a slight rasp ala Steve Forbert. The title track shows Teitur’s ability to paint a vivid picture, something only the most gifted songwriters can do well. “Josephine” has a European flair about it and “Amanda’s Dream” is an airy slow piece that can’t help but draw you in. Some of the latter tracks such as “To Meet You” might drag a little and veer off course, but this is still a solid debut. Good singer/songwriters usually have great, distinctive voices and a good sense of melody. Some of them are prolific guitar or piano players, and others are great storytellers. Teitur has the whole package. That, and sounding like some legends of the past generation don’t hurt him. If you like moody songwriters who really make you stop and listen, you’ll want to pick this one up pronto. ~Mike Farley mfarley@bullz-eye.com
