There's a world-weariness in his vocals that shouldn't be there in someone so young. I think it's reverence to his blues heroes.

It's much better bthan Tste's eponymous debut but I have a real soft spot for On the Boards which I rate highly and think is superb

That said removing my bias this may just be the best of the 3
