In the Late Bright is an album by Tommy Keene, released in 2009. [3] [4]
The New Yorker called the album "another strong collection of power-pop compositions anchored by Keene's buzzing, insistent guitar." [5] Paste wrote that "the weakness is that [Keene's] voice, hoarse and quite deliberate, tamps down the exuberance of his upbeat tracks, even when cushioned by harmony singing." [6] The Oklahoman called the album "alt-pop near-perfection." [7]
