Better Days by Phil Darosa - Uhune

ALBUM

Acoustic guitar-based songs once served as a mere detour for rock bands to show off their sensitive side before returning back to mega-amped rock & roll. But somewhere along the way, artists emerged -- most obviously, Dave Matthews -- who made the instrument a constant and crucial ingredient of their identifiable sound. And singer/guitarist Phil DaRosa certainly specializes in this style, as evidenced by his solo debut, Better Days. Equal parts Matthews and John Mayer, you get an album's worth of acoustic guitar-led ditties that alternate between introspective ("Short Breath"), funky ("Better Way"), pop-like (the album opener "Wouldn't I Like"), and quirky -- in an Edie Brickell & New Bohemians sorta way ("Inspiration"). Better Days shows that the granola-chomping/Birkenstock-sporting crowd now have a new heartthrob on their hands -- Mr. Phil DaRosa.
