If you were hooked on the low-fi, strummy goodness on the Garden State soundtrack, you'll dig actor-director Zach Braff's latest discovery. Radin's inspiration for most of his debut, We Were Here, is a particularly heinous breakup hardly revolutionary, but his handling of this well-worn theme is understated, poignant and refreshingly frank. Highlight: the album's lead track, "Sundrenched World," where he employs a single, echoey cello as a melodic backdrop for his whispery, silver-bell voice.
