This was the one new release this fall that I was most excited for.
After his loose, acoustic departure on 2009's Free, I didn't really know what to expect,
but this album really found the middle ground between Free and his previous two albums.
It's full of the big, bold, punchy hooks and singalong choruses every Gavin fan loves
while not going too brashly over the top.
Sweeter also marks the first time Gavin has collaborated with other songwriters
(OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder and Andrew Frampton)
which provides added texture and new perspectives in the songwriting.
While I never thought it possible, this album has actually managed to
surpass 2008's Gavin DeGraw as my favorite Gavin album.
