Tracks
The wispy and folksy tunes of Wile Hope are a stark departure from Moore's past albums. Leaving her pop roots behind, Moore forges a new path with Wild Hope, proving her mettle as a singer is not defined by a single genre.
From Slummin' in Paradise to the title track, Wild Hope hedges it's position in the folk/pop area with catch beats that lean on Moore's vocal stylings rather than instrumentals. The raw and emotional songs give a glimpse into how Moore lays out her tracks - Most of Me foregoes synths and instead tells a personal story; while Extraordinary starts the album off in familiar territory for old fans.
If you are looking for a coffee-house smooth and easy to like album, your search ends with Wild Hope.
