"I stumbled across Mainstay rather by accident, first hearing the title song "Becoming Who You Are," and was blown away by the lead vocals. Really, really great vocalist here! I own this album and also recently saw this band live on tour with Jeremy Camp. They were great live and the lead vocals held up, too, which is often not the case when you get around to seeing a band perform live. My husband, having heard nothing of Mainstay, said the band reminded him just a bit of the Goo Goo Dolls. When they're really rocking (how I personally like them best), they have a terrific, full sound. I have no regrets about purchasing this album and look forward to more from Mainstay!"

Solid effort

"Wow! I'm surprised nobody gave this CD a rating.



I first heard of Mainstay from iTune when they had the song "Become who you are" as a free download. It's definitely a catchy little song that can be listened to over and over without getting bored. Compare with their previous album "Well meaning fiction" (which is a great album), "Become who you are" is a bit softer yet more melodic. Most songs are fairly quiet so if you're not into those kind of music then this is not the CD for you.



Anyhow, I give this CD a 4.5 stars. If you're interested, definitely give it a try!"
