I'm going to recommend him for next year's Fuji Rock to play on the roots rock stage. Don't get many pop artists who can whistle like that!

I think I have all of his albums. I really like him.

I'm not a devotee, but I enjoy him a lot.

I haven't heard him in years but recall liking what I did. I recall having the impression that it's how Jeff Buckley could have sounded had he not perished so young.

That's an interesting comparison. Never thought about it, but yeah.

Me neither, but I think he's amazing, and this Tiny Desk Concert is a case in point.
