The Good
The title track is laden with rich piano and soft guitar grooves. Nathan Ferraro delivers his vocals in sort of a quick reggae style at first, but soon fits right into a beautiful harmonic tone. "Change For You" is rich in emotion and melody. "Nobody Understands" is a pure vocal showcase for Ferraro. He eventually gets some instrumental accompaniment, but with such a voice, he doesn't really need it. "A Million Fireflies" is a guitar riff oriented track in which Ferraro challenges his range, and delivers quite a punch.

The Bad
Only 4 songs long

The Verdict
There's a new singer-songwriter on the block and his name is Nathan Ferraro. He can't take all the credit, because with his band The Midway State, they deliver some great pop-rock compositions full of melody and personal experiences. Can't wait to hear what's next. full of muscle and energy, with slight references to the 90s industrial sound.

I went to see a show at a local venue and The Midway State were one of the opening bands that night. They were absolutely fantastic! Their EP contains 4 great songs. Midway State I would say that their style is reminiscent of Coldplay and Maroon 5. I would definitely recommend this cd if you are looking for a great rock/down tempo sound. These guys are going to be big one day soon. My only complaint is that there are only 4 songs on this cd! It is so great and I have played it so often that I've just about worn it out and I've only had it for 6 days! Luckily they will be working on a new full length cd this fall that will be available at the end of the year. So if you are looking for some good new music then look no further than the Midway State.
