Editorial Reviews

Composer: David Leonard .Jackson Waters: Toby Friesen, David Leonard (acoustic guitar); Jesse Lafave (electric guitar); Brian Meek (electric bass); Ryan Hawk (drums).Personnel: Rob Hawkins (background vocals).Come Undone remained under the radar despite a strong showing of Southern-influenced modern rock. Vocalist David Leonard, guitarists Toby Friesen and Jesse LaFave, bass player Brian Meek and drummer Ryan Hawk had difficulty describing how their jangly modern rock distinguishes itself from similar fare by other middle-of-the-road rock acts. A dreamier, less funky Maroon 5 or a diluted version of the Turning might come closest to pinning down the sound on the quintet's Word debut. Producer Rob Hawkins (David Crowder Band) kept the guitars bright, and this extra gloss kept the album from veering off toward emo territory. The title track benefits from an After Edmund-like pulsating riff and soaring vocals that give shape to the lyrics. Other tracks find strength in lyrical transparency and powerful dynamic builds throughout. The lilting ballad "Center of Attention," which was featured on an episode of TV's One Tree Hill, describes the power struggle in an unbalanced relationship. Closing tracks "Give It All Away" and "Let It Fly" offer little in the way of memorable lyrics but make up for it with the album's most approachable and upbeat pop rhythms. Frequently compared to Matchbox Twenty and NeedtoBreathe, Jackson Waters showed they were perhaps just one hit away from taking the contemporary Christian market by storm.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Sound, Positive Lyrics, April 6, 2007

'Come Undone' is a very enjoyable pop/rock album.

I had never heard of Jackson Waters until very recently. I heard the song, 'Give Me Amazing Grace' and decided that I wanted to hear some more. It quickly became clear that this is a very talented band that put together a great debut CD.

Not only is their music positive, it is also clearly Christian. The lyrics explore various topics such as longing for heaven, God's infinite patience with us, and the wonder of new life in Christ. These inspiring words are combined with excellent vocals and some very energetic guitar playing.

This CD is a real treat. If you haven't heard this group before, I recommend giving them a try.
