Guster Album Haiku

By Andrea Williams

Album Haiku: Easy Wonderful by Guster

Yes, I do love… it.

Easy, Relaxed, Wonderful

Sparks a Music Smile.

4 out of 5

Songs we can’t take off repeat; “Do You Love Me,” “What You Call Love,” “Bad Bad World,” and “This Could All Be Yours.”

From the colorful recycled CD case to the twelve tracks, this is the best we have heard from Guster. It was worth the 4 year wait. Easy Wonderful carries this smooth chill feel throughout the twelve songs. Some carry a faster beat, others carry your ear buds through a sleeping ocean, and one will strike your ukulele fancy. Charming serious songwriting and pop filled tunes with a sprinkle of harmonies makes this one a winner. Flows like the wind through your hair riding downhill on a cruiser bicycle.
