Review

Spin (p.80) - "Gentlemanly melodies glide across elegant guitars and High Llama Sean O'Hagan's swelling string arrangements."

Title Note

Over the course of his short career, Norwegian singer/songwriter Sondre Lerche has changed course more times than Steve McQueen racing through the streets of San Francisco in BULLIT. From the chamber pop he started out with on his first two albums (including his best until now TWO-WAY MONOLOGUE) to the late-night jazz album (DUPER SESSIONS), the punky new wave record (PHANTOM PUNCH), and the soundtrack (DAN IN REAL LIFE), he's been somewhat of a chameleon. Lerche's songwriting is tricky but light on its feet, emotionally nuanced and quick-witted, too. His voice is rich and sweet, the musicians he plays with are above par, and his musical taste is always spot-on. Rather than being some kind of surprising U-turn, HEARTBEAT RADIO is a consolidation of everything he's done so far. It has his best songwriting, most effective vocals, and most accomplished sound. Lerche draws from classic sophisticated pop throughout, whether making reference to Prefab Sprout on the wonderfully smooth "I Cannot Let You Go" or Randy Newman on the melancholy "I Guess It's Gonna Rain Today," dipping into loungy atmospheres on the swooning "Like Lazenby," or tripping through the flowers like a lovestruck sunshine pop singer on "Words & Music." He also adds some spunk to the proceedings with cynical slams on the music biz ("Goodnight") and the radio ("Heartbeat Radio") that call to mind Elvis Costello at his most bitter. It's a well-rounded, extremely listenable album from a really talented singer/songwriter.
