I've only heard of him 5 days ago (02/29/12) and my iPod has been playing his stuff on repeat.

@WhimZo It's was a silly comment on his part. MY GOODNESS, TWO GREAT MUSICIANS FROM THE SAME COUNTRY! WHAT DO THEY FEED THEIR CHILDREN? Tying talent to nationality is bullshit.

@bslz65 Not really. You can name 10 times as many great British musicians, and many more great French and Spanish ones as well. Even Iceland has Bjork and Sigur Ros.

Great musician!
