Packed!

Pretenders

A polished, introspective collection of mid-tempo rock. Chrissie Hynde's unmistakable alto floats over shimmering guitars and session-tight rhythms.

It's Chrissie Hynde at her most vulnerable and melodic, perfect for a rainy night drive.

A sophisticated, wistful reflection on transition and longing, delivered with a smooth, late-night polish.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The delicate, almost whispered delivery of the Hendrix cover May This Be Love which strips away the psych-rock for pure vulnerability.
The jangly, upbeat guitar hook of Downtown (Akron) that briefly recaptures the band's classic power-pop energy.
The way the backing vocals swell during the chorus of When Will I See You, creating a sense of deep, unresolved longing.
