Great album, top 10 of 2007!| Posted October 23, 2008
I love the other bands Jackson Waters could be compared to, NEEDTOBREATHE, Coldplay and Maroon 5 and those are fair comparisons. The standout songs "Center of Attention" and "Come Undone" both reflect that alt-rock style. However, unlike some bands that have a couple of good songs and then filler songs, you need to hear the entire album. "Everything", "Give Me Amazing Grace", "Jamie's Song", "Ready To Find Love" and "Different" are also highlights for me. Pick it up and you won't regret it. It's definitely a top 10 of 2007 release in my opinion.
I've also been enjoying the new EP by Jackson Waters called "Supply" that just came out 10/21/08. Great band with emotional lyrics and melodic hooks. Jackson Waters is one of my favorite new alternative rock bands this decade.

This is a emo style album. Solid lyrics and a great full sound. 'Center of Attention" is a cool song that was on my myspace for a long while. Check them out!
A melodious rocking message| Posted December 07, 2008
'Come Undone', this disc often ends up in my cd-player, rocking and jumping on the melodious sounds. The sound of the voice of David Leonard perfectly fits the music and keeps you awake (positive!). The messages of the songs are real: they are clear Christian ("Give Me Amazing Grace", "One More Day", "Different") and also taken from daily life ("Send Her An Angel", "Ready To Find Love").
Somehow when I feel stressed or irritated, this records always lifts me up and makes me forget my troubles and remembers me of who I am in Christ: alive because of His grace, totally changed (different) because of His sacrifice and meant to care for the people around me.
