No matter where we are in life, some of us are searching for more or a profession that we can actually say that we are proud of. Wanting to enjoy what he was doing in life, former tax attorney Scott Krokoff, quit his day job to follow his dreams of being a musician and released his debut CD A Better Life.
A cross between John Mayer and James Taylor, A Better Life is a journey about everyday situations that in the end make you think about how your life could be as well. His lyrics are thought provoking and melodies soothing and those who are looking for a fresh new sound that’s hasn’t been mixed or hyped by mainstream producers should definitely listen to A Better Life.
Listening to track three, “A Better Life”, shows Krokoff’s driving force behind and no doubt motivation for going after his dream and become a musician.
For the most part, A Better Life is an upbeat album that sends a feel-good message. However, the one exception to that is the song “A Glimpse of Your Face” which shows a more melancholy side of Krokoff.
Overall, A Better Life is a wonderful CD that will leave listeners full of anticipation for Krokoff’s second release.
