Listen To 'Glee' Star Chord Overstreet's First Solo Single

Not only is Sam Evans back where he belongs Lima, Ohio's proud teens of New Directions, but Chord Overstreet is also stepping out to stand on his own two feet.

Hot off the heels of his most triumphant return to McKinley High, Overstreet has a debut solo single that's arrived online a little sooner than expected. According to The Huffington Post, Overstreet might've left the "Glee" cast last summer, but he kept plenty busy between then and now by making a beeline for the nearest studio.

The finished product is an acoustic pop debut that should hit stores next year.

Clearly, the work ethic is in the genes: he's the son of country singer-songwriter Paul Overstreet. His older brother, Noah, is the lead singer of pop-rock act Hot Chelle Rae.

It's a piano-heavy ballad that's a little light on poetic content. It doesn't get much further than your standard love-at-first-sight, so-lovestruck-I-fall-all-over-myself ditty that's destined to probably make the soundtrack of something on ABC Family. He doesn't exactly display the most memorable voice, either. Think of every stereotypical knock people make against John Mayer or (worse) Jason Mraz.

That about sums it up.

But give it a listen, and let us know what you think in the comment section.
