Radio pop comes your way in Pictures and Sound

  • We Say...

    There's no other way to put it: "Everything Leaves a Mark," the first song on Pictures and Sound, sounds a lot — a lot — like Coldplay. Luke Reynolds is the man behind Pictures and Sound (he previously fronted the more commercial country outfit Blue Merle), a singer-songwriter situated in Nashville with a professional, self-assured sound that lends itself just as well to the glistening rock-pop of Los Angeles. That "Everything Leaves a Mark" opens this album is not an accident: though the rest sticks more to a John Mayer-style of adult pop, its aspirations are clearly Coldplay-ian — dominate the pop world, get famous, write half-sad, half-triumphant anthems about love both mundane and extraordinary. You could fill a thousand stadiums with singer-songwriters dancing with that same dream, but I doubt you could come up with many that have a better shot of actualizing it than Mr. Reynolds. The future could very well be his.
