    There's no Lucinda but the future could be Bright for this New Jersey group. They are easily at their best when they stick to the pop sounds of the opening cut, "Waiting." Leigh Woolston's vocal interpretations nicely complement the rest of the quintet's feel good melodies. Lyrically the album is intriguing though it rates a zero on the Jesus meter. The songs are written in a quirky sort of way and delivered likewise. When using poetic license it's always a good idea to include a lyric sheet, which this album doesn't do.

    On the whole With All Your Charms is a nice listen and makes you look forward to their next release.
