Over the course of every year there are many debut artists who come up out of the wood work and establish themselves as solid singers. Some of that success for new artists lies in good promotion but most of it lies in plain talent; both of which seem to be true of Lanae' Hale and her management. The Florida native offers opens the act of her career with her present pop debut Back and Forth. The track which sets the tone for the album is the title track; the guitar fueled pop song is filled with the charm of her vocals which adds a mature laid back sound which will attract a wide range of pop fans.
Although the music takes a very nice sound on the upbeat pop song “Beautiful Things”, but the album’s best edge maintains soft guitar led ballads especially “Lets Grow Old Together” and the emotional finale “Don’t Cry.” Even though there are some simplistic tracks mixed in the thirteen track album, most of the tunes remain very attractive. The lyrics don’t delve into terribly deep topics but throughout talking about relationships songs where the pronouns don’t necessarily point to God, Lanae’ Hale’s does make God’s presence known ("Burning Heartbeats" and "Estranged"). Overall Back and Forth is a good pop album which is sure to recruit fans of all ages.
