For all his pop instincts, Grant Lee Phillips is ultimately a folk-rocker at heart (hell, he was even the "town troubadour" on TV's GILMORE GIRLS), which is what makes MOBILIZE such a striking anomaly in the singer/songwriter's discography.

It's a testament to the strength of his vision that the production never overtakes the songs, and in the end, MOBILIZE feels more or less of a piece with Phillips's more acoustic-oriented recordings.

Professional Reviews

Q (4/02, p.119) - 4 out of 5 stars - "...MOBILIZE is the album that always seemed beyond his [previous] group. The dreamy, elegiac opener, 'See America' is gorgeous..."
