{"product_id":"pelago","title":"Pelago","description":"Ryan Hurd finally received a hit as a performer when he paired up with Maren Morris -- the superstar singer\/songwriter is also Hurd's wife -- for the slow-burning ballad \"Chasing After You.\" The single helped set up the October 2021 release of Pelago, a gleaming example of modern country-pop. As sunny as a Saturday afternoon and smooth as a Sunday drive, Pelago is filled with easy melodies, gilded surfaces, and soft R\u0026amp;B rhythms, a warm setting that allows Hurd to sound empathetic yet masculine. His light touch is his chief appeal both as a singer and songwriter, letting him deliver heartbreak and lilting reggae with equal aplomb. If the production tends to veer a little too close to the rudderless, genre-free territory of streaming pop, Hurd's skill as a songwriter and presence as a performer keeps the focus on the song, which in turn makes Pelago a quite agreeable experience. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45359376367903,"sku":"889853766420","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/3099c1405d9351fb50a394cf845c3f74_ae263310-2b54-40ec-9ffb-608b883fef6c.jpg?v=1768161580","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/pelago","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
