Released March 26 on Mosley Music Group/Interscope Records, One Republic’s third album has racked up plenty of praise.  The New York Times said Native “serves up layer upon layer of glossy keyboards, reverberant guitars and choir like backing vocals.”  Not to be outdone in showing OneRepublic some love, Entertainment Weekly liked the album’s “soaring, evangelical choruses of prescription strength goose-bump inducers like ‘Feel Again’ and ‘If I Lose Myself.’”
