Customer Reviews
A true labour of love & best Caudill record yet!
“Artists simply don’t come more independent than this Californian, and that’s no bad thing. From songwriting through to production and graphic design, it might all take a little longer, but the freedom allows Caudill to wear his heart on his sleeve and answer to no one. Kicking off with the title song - an ode to his young daughter - the theme of the album is finding comfort in your family and own skin. If it all sounds like he's gone soft, nothing could be further from the truth, with the album being a triumphant blend of indie, pop and country. ‘Remember the Time’ harks back to former band, Gameface, with its rough and ready harmonies and memorable chorus which shows he’s lost none of his fire, whilst ‘I Was The Lead Singer’ is a more wistful look back to bygone days. Elsewhere, the album is a both a continuation and advancement on his debut. Channeling great Americana bands like The Replacements and The Lemonheads with his own pop sensibility on ‘Transition City’ is trademark Caudill and sounds familiar and warm. Elsewhere, album closer ‘All Things New’ is a piano-led ballad which represents new territory and possibly hints at things to come. Freed from the constraints of record labels, management and all the other things that can drag musicians down, this is the sound of a man at work, embracing his autonomy to make a great record.” – Whisperin’ & Hollerin’
Another incredible record!
Let's get one thing straight. In my opinion, there has never been a band in the punk/indie/whatever scene that was as underappreciated as Southern CA's Gameface. After Gameface disbanded, Jeff Caudill continued his signature song writing in his solo efforts. TTBH is his latest masterpiece. He once again offers beautiful melodies, solid song writing, and honest and impactful lyrics. His honest and comfortable voice offers the listener a feeling of "hey, I've been there, you might be there right now, and everything is going to be OK." He says on "I Was The Lead Singer" that he was the lead singer before he learned to sing. He is an incredibly talented singer-songwriter that doesn't even know how good he is. He could sing the phonebook and make it sound compelling. If you enjoy some good music and straight forward jams, you need to pick this up. Oh yeah, and Popeye Vogelsang from Farside does some back up vocals. You can't go wrong. Try to be here? Jeff, I know I'll be right here as long as you'll be making music.
Excellent sophomore effort from the ever prolific Jeff Caudill
This is the second full length solo album from Jeff Caudill and if you liked the first full length and the two EPs he's released in the past few years, you'll like this one too. The addition of former Farside frontman Popeye V on guitar and backing vocals adds another dimension (and a good one at that) to the overall sound as well. Farside fans will be happy to know that the Popeye stamp is clearly audible on all of the songs that he plays guitar and sings backup on. The standout track for me though is "Dreaming In Realtime", which is ALL Jeff. It's a beautiful and haunting song which features some of the best vocals I've ever heard in my life. Yet another great record from the ever prolific Jeff Caudill.
