Overdressed Title: Overdressed
Artist: Caedmon's Call
INO Records

With multiple (and revolving) songwriters and singers, Caedmon's Call has always felt like a supergroup, and with Derek Webb's presence again on Overdressed, now more so. The new album almost matches the consistently high standard set by 40 Acres, arguably their best. Here Webb and Sandra McCracken offer songs that are typically self-examining, but Andrew Osenga proves to be the workhorse, writing the bulk of material, and managing an entertaining variety of styles, with the Youngs (Cliff and Danielle) singing the more accessible and celebratory, like Need Your Love, and Osenga taking vocals on the songs that ape his pleasantly reflective work with the Normals.
