If you’re like me, when you’ve got some alone time, you love to turn up the jams and dance and sing along… loudly. Charm School could not be a more perfect album for such an occasion!
Charm School gets off to a joyful beginning with handclaps, duets, and a definite ’60s rock sound similar to The Kinks on the title track. And for the next dozen tracks, the listener receives an ample amount of this infectious sound. Bishop Allen frontmen and lead singers, Justin Rice and Christian Rudder, weave another simplistic yet adorable pop tune on “Little Black Ache.” Although the sound is retro, the polish Bishop Allen brings to each number is unmistakable.
