The sophomoric album titled A Twist In My Story by Secondhand Serenade will be released on February 19, 2008 on Glassnote Records.
Secondhand Serenade consists of vocalist and guitarist John Vesely.
I listened to A Twist In My Story in its entirety and I really enjoyed the album. In fact, I predict the album will not suffer from the sophomoric blues like other bands and musicians have suffered.
A Twist In My Story commences with Like a Knife and concludes with Goodbye. The songs in between like Fall For You, Maybe, Stranger, Your Call, Suppose, Why and Stay Close, Don’t Go continue to twist the story in multiple directions until that last Goodbye.
If you are unfamiliar with Secondhand Serenade’s music, consider these options. First, I prefer not to label bands or musicians, however if you enjoy Dashboard Confessional’s music then you will definitely enjoy Secondhand Serenade. Second, if for some reason you do not like Dashboard Confessional’s music but still enjoy acoustically played music, then you should definitely listen to Secondhand Serenade.
The songs played acoustically on the album are A Twist In My Story, Pretend and Goodbye.
Therefore, if you really enjoy Dashboard Confessional’s music and/or enjoy acoustically played music, visit their website at www.secondhandserenade.com or their MySpace page at www.myspace.com/secondhandserenade and listen to their music.
If it turns out that you really enjoy Secondhand Serenade’s music, make sure you purchase their albums Awake, which is currently available, and A Twist In My Story, which will be released on February 19, 2008 at iTunes, Napster, Rhapsody or any other store that sells their music.
If you own a video iPod, I would recommend purchasing the video Vulnerable from Secondhand Serenade’s debut album Awake. The video is just as entertaining as its musical counterpart.
If you do not own a video iPod but enjoy the song Vulnerable, make sure you purchase their album at iTunes, Napster, Rhapsody or any store that sells their music. Other songs you will want to listen to on Awake are Your Call, Maybe and It’s Not Over.
Finally, I am looking forward to providing future coverage of Secondhand Serenade next time they perform in Chicago.
