Sean Lennon’s Mixed Vocal Blessings

Roger Friedman of FoxNews.com weighed in on Sean Lennon’s new album ‘Friendly Fire’, which hits stores in late September. Friedman writes, “It’s no surprise that ‘Friendly Fire’ sounds not only a lot like the father’s work, but like Julian’s too. Sean has the mixed blessing of a voice that combines both his parents, hence the little extra nasal sound when his mom’s genetics come through.”
