Musician and singer Soft Glas captures the everyday like he can't help but treat what is normal as remarkable. In his little slice of life framed as an album entitled, "How Strange," the "Stunned" artist constructs honest music ranging in the pocket of what feels good to what personally frightens him, layered with an Americana texture on the instrumentation.

Records on "How Strange" can evoke the feelings of pouring a stiff drink in an attempt to bandage a bad day, or the ebb and flow of feeling joyous and stressed around family. From "Pool Steps" to "Gentle Roam," there is a great period documenting life being lived and almost a begging to be heard via the songwriting. Track 8, "Confidence," however, felt a bit like a departure from one's own life in exchange for life-changing discovery. The homestyle guitar riff carries like the rustling breeze. Soft Glas's solitary melodies are found without a map yet excite without trepidation. Galloping drums conjure up an unshakable image of driving with your dog in a pickup truck, completing the wholesome picture and safely becoming a record you can trust by the changing chorus.
