Our Take

Ah, Rowan's latest album "Does It Make You Happy?" is a quirky blend of indie pop and folk that will have you nodding your head and tapping your feet in no time. The album kicks off with the infectiously catchy "Happiness is a Warm Gun", where Rowan's raspy vocals shine over jangly guitars and bouncy rhythms.

Tracks like "Merry-Go-Round" and "Carousel" showcase Rowan's knack for storytelling, with vivid lyrics painting pictures of love, loss, and everything in between. The instrumentation on the album is lush and layered, with strings, horns, and synths adding depth and dimension to the already rich sound.

However, the album does have its missteps. Tracks like "Rainy Day Blues" and "Soggy Bottom" feel a bit clichéd and uninspired, and fail to leave a lasting impression. Rowan's vocals, while undeniably charming, can sometimes be a bit too saccharine and cloying, bordering on twee.

Overall, "Does It Make You Happy?" is a solid effort from Rowan, showcasing their talent for crafting catchy, heartfelt tunes. While it may not reinvent the wheel, it's a fun and enjoyable listen that is sure to bring a smile to your face. So go ahead, give it a spin and see if it makes you happy.
