"Shawn Hebb's "Tourist" is a good independent release. He writes catchy short pop tunes that have charm. The opening track is "Some Things." Shawn's breezy vocals front his one-man-band band arrangement that boasts a driving midtempo beat, "I woke up this morning, my hand reached out to touch your hair; With some contemplation, I realized you were not there. You left last evening." "This May Be the Last Time" is another pop gem where his fast-paced lyric is married to a catchy melody that jumps into your head and won't leave, "There's got to be more than wasting my day in this dead-end job." Hebb's voice is a bit thin, but serves the material well. While not all of the songs are equally memorable, the best of the bunch shows this young artist has potential. This is a charming release. Enjoy!
