Lasse Vestergaard
Viva! And then some
self-released
Various influences make their way into Vesergaard's music. From country to folk and rock and blues, he presents varied instrumentation for similar effects. To be completely frank, this is way overproduced, and some of the arrangements are baffling (for example: timpani mallets on drum cymbals on "Weary eyes" are very out of place.) That said, the song writing is pretty good, if very middle of the road, and sometimes reminiscent of John Mellencamp. A more intimate recording would have been a lot better.
