Chris Jaiden "The Time is Now" Album Review

Chris Jaiden, a songwriting/producing/guitar-playing machine, released a ten-track album called "The Time is Now" in March of 2011. This is acoustic-rock at it's finest with all the production & writing done by himself. Chris Jaiden inspires even artists outside of his genre and convinces them that "Hip Hop" isn't the only "cool" genre of music.

ThaWilsonBlock took a liking to Chris Jaiden when we reached out to him and insisted that he let us help promote him and his new compilation. "The Time is Now" is Chris Jaiden's debut solo album and has music listeners everywhere raving about his lovable and attractive performances. Already receiving great reviews, Chris Jaiden has revolutionized the acoustic-rock genre and he's undoubtedly our favorite artist from that flavor of music.

After hearing the songs on "The Time is Now," we're eager to obtain Chris Jaiden's new project, which is yet to be announced if he's even working on anything new. Here are what some of the critics are saying:

"I find my mind repeating choruses and melodies hours even days later. His voice is a strong blend of grunge era roots and more contemporary singer/songwriters like Jack Johnson and Dave Mathews, but powerfully his own. This project is on the darker side of the masculine angst of love and loss. Chris Jaden’s singing and songwriting abilities mesh well producing music which captures depth of emotion and uniquely expresses his message. Well written lyrics, sung with strength and outpouring heart, accompanied with acoustic guitar make this album a mellow but intense listen."— KSCU DJ Tavius Dyer, KSCU

"Chris Jaiden is a powerful pioneer in the new age of digital media and on the forefront of the music industry's revolution."— Dilara Esengil, Prweb.com

"With a soulful, lyrical approach to life’s deep moving waters and developed instrumentation, reflektiv moves from art rock expressionism to hard rock swagger with deft ability and impassioned direction."

— JC Haydon, Your Music Magazine

Chris Jaiden's album "The Time is Now" has been topping ThaWilsonBlock Charts at #1 for almost the entire month of May (2011).
