Sound check

A snap review of new music

Bringing forth her first album in five years, English musician Birdy pays tribute to love with Young Heart. While there’s a lot to like in the album, the title track surprisingly appears to pale when compared to the rest of the songs in the 16-track offering. A rather ballad-like quality is expected to enhance the  theme of heartbreak, but Birdy appears to struggle with setting a pace that can be appealing.
