Golden Glow"s debut, Tender Is The Night is an upbeat Brit-pop album swarming in romance. Whether on the album"s more pop-based tracks ("Adore Me," "Locked Inside," "Books") or the more hazy meditations ("The Blizzard," "On My Own"), Pierre Hall proves that you do not need million dollar studios or technically perfect performances to capture meaning and feeling in music. To say the recordings are raw is to do story of this album"s creation a disservice.
