log in to review the album.
great variety of melody and music
author: Ilene
My top 3 songs: Depression is very addicting; can't stop listening to it. Awesome play on words. Great transfer from keyboards to piano in law-ree. I love everything about Girl from December. Too bad this cd was written about such a crappy part of your life; but if it influenced you to create this talented piece of work, then it's all worth it. I think many people relate. Hard to believe this was all done in front of your computer and out of studio. Love it!

Three Listens and You Will Be Hooked!
author: JWH
After listening to "Rhymes With Sorry" three times, you won't be able to turn it off. I wasn't in love with it at first... but then I suddenly found myself singing the songs in the shower and playing the CD more and more. Now I love it! I've played it for other people and they've liked it, too. In my opinion, the artist is like a mix of old Billy Joel and Coldplay. The piano, acoustic guitar and harmonizing are the best parts, and they give the album it's unique sound. Excellent production values. The best songs are: I'll Be With You; Girl From December; and You Get More. Buy this album -- you won't be "sorry."

Adam rules.
author: Kate Skochko
Adam's CD is one of the most passionate ones I've ever heard. It's beautiful, sad, happy, funny, and very heartfelt. Adam conveys his emotions perfectly through his music, while at the same time not being overbearingly sappy or sad. His music has a really huge range of styles, so you're going to like at least one song on this CD. Plus, you've gotta respect a guy who writes all of the lyrics, plays all of the instruments, and records everything himself.

Impressive - not cheesy like other solo projects
author: D. A. Lynn
Very impressive. I usually hate singer/songwriter projects because most of the music involves self-infatuated navel-gazing set to unimpressive acoustic accompiniment. That is not the case here. Byer's lyrics present a "workingman's" take on relationships backed by a tour-de-force of complex rhythms and background vocals. Well worth the purchase price.
