"Gone Astray" by California duo Which Ways Quicker is the the band's debut acoustic rock EP that features elements of alternative pop, reggae, and country . The only instruments on this album are guitar – acoustic for the majority, but electric for the reggae tracks – and drums. The resulting arrangements emit a simple, full sound. Lyrically, the entire EP centers around the theme of finding one's self, and Which Ways Quicker offers heartfelt and positive lyrics about having a sense of belonging and finding one's way back home. These songs are fueled by an upbeat sound and extremely catchy choruses. The vocals are unique, though in a poppy rock vein similar to Jack Johnson and Jason Mraz. "Gone Astray" is well-recorded, polished, and ready for college radio play. "Lost" opens the EP out with a song about forgetting where home is and slowly finding your way back, and features a nice acoustic arrangement and a catchy chorus. "New Diddy" is a reggae rock track with nice guitar work and fun lyrics about life in a small town. Overall, "Gone Astray" is a great debut from Which Ways Quicker that leaves the listener thirsting for more. Fans of acoustic and reggae rock, pick up this EP.
