I never heard of this guy before his new album which I saw and heard cuts from when I randomly stopped at KEXP's Youtube channel. Yesterday I found by accident he is playing in Cambridge and thought wth let's drop in and sing along to the few tunes I know from Temple Beautiful.
Oh man. I did not expect what I saw. First off, this guy should be playing to much larger crowds, but the fact that he was playing a basement to a 100 people or so did not bother him one bit -- he was on freaking fire, and so was his excellent band. I liked every single thing they played to the very last bit. It was one of the best shows I have seen recently. The tones were incredible, the playing was superb. The guy was funny and engaging and the songs were so good. I had to buy a tshirt so that when people ask me what I am wearing I get a chance to spread the word.
I googled the forum and saw many threads about him. This is one case where one more thread is certainly deserved. PSA: If this guy goes anywhere near you, go see him play. I can guarantee you will have a blast because his attitude is just contagious.
