It opens with the laid-back, mid-tempo tune “She’s Gone” and it is followed by “Fix Me,” which has a modern edge to it. He showcases his rich and impressive vocals on the orchestral ballad “Us Again.”
“Tell Me” has neat conversational lyrics and a catchy melody, where Wicks displays his storytelling ability. “Saturday Afternoon” is mellow and nonchalant, where his vocals are reminiscent of Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray meets Jake Owen.
He tackles the subject matter of loneliness effectively well on the polished ballad “I Don’t Do Lonely Well.” It is great to see the inclusion of “Salt Life” in this project. Another noteworthy ballad is “Always,” while “Watcha Got Girl” is more fun and sassy, which has a bro-country vibe to it. His CD closes with on an emotional note with “Over You Gettin’ over Me.”
