In this album, Vie is working with his old time ‘friend’ from Enuff ZNuff, Randi Scott on drums, Jimmy Maguire on guitars and Patrick Pulver on bass. The songs are all characterized by tight arrangements, catchy choruses, solid guitar work and above all the distinctive voice of Vie. The highlights of the new album are enough. “Lisa” is a one of the highlights here. It has a feel-good vibe and a catchy chorus that sticks in your mind from the first listening! The “Daddy’s Girl” moves to a more bluesy way and “Now Ya Know” blows you away with its fantastic melody.
In conclusion, “Wrapped Around My Middle Finger” is a good album that sounds fun and gives the listener a pleasant touch of carelessness with its very good pop-rock songs. For fans of Enuff ZNuff this is a must have, for the rest is a good chance to discover a great artist!
