about

Sonically, The Happiness Waltz takes a trip back into Rouse's early-2000's period. A number of the new tracks could easily find a home on the AM radio of the late 1970's, nestled between some of the biggest songs of the day. Lyrically, The Happiness Waltz is very much an album in the present, featuring some of Rouse's most personal songs to date. The album is filled with Rouse's thoughtful, delicate and infectious pop craft, a sound that has become his signature. The subtle grooves of "It's Good To Have You" and "Julie (Come Out Of The Rain)" blend seamlessly with the poignant "The Ocean" and "Our Love" and the jovial "A Lot Like Magic" and "City People and City Things". Rouse reunites with producer Brad Jones, who produced and engineered two of his most beloved albums, 1972 (2003) and Nashville (2005).
