Trading one Butch for another,
Harmony finds teenage singer/songwriter Christopher Drew (aka
Never Shout Never) jumping from producer
Butch Walker to
Butch Vig on his second album. With
Vig behind the wheel,
Harmony feels like a more polished affair, making the album brighter, slicker, and less reverby than Drew’s previous record,
What Is Love? Fans of
Never Shout Never’s earlier records will find a lot to love here, with
Harmony delivering the same kind of sugary acoustic pop that put
What Is Love? on the charts. ~ Gregory Heaney
