While the song itself sits pretty firmly in the pop scope, it embraces 80’s r&b drum techniques and vocally Poulson seems well suited for both country-rock and modern pop. The culmination of these distinct styles … Continue reading Our hearts are Gone Without a Trace after Chris Poulson’s latest.

The mid-tempo rumblings of congas move into focus accompanied by the rattling of shakers and African tribal chanting and we know we’re in for a treat.
