Hailing from Brooklyn, Mills continues in his Americana style of folk-pop, incorporating danceable percussion elements with a country twang and plucky piano progressions that nod to simpler times.&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<h3>Drawing from influences such as Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and the later work of John Mayer, Mills combines upbeat instrumentation with driving guitar melodies to create an infectious old-timey swing.&nbsp;The new album also features songs that take a slower, smoother ride, with Mills crooning emotional, no-holds-barred lyrics that find ways into your heart. Mills tells The Bluegrass Situation: \u201cIf there\u2019s one thing I\u2019ve learned, it\u2019s that the good ones [songs] are always honest.\u201d<\/h3>\n<h3><em>Something Good<\/em> is full of moving messages about growing up and undeniably catchy grooves, fresh off the presses and ready to make their way to your speakers.
