My buddy showed me a tape of this guy on austin city limits, i have to say he BLEW ME AWAY, this guy has simple guitar based stuff, a lot of open chords really, but a great unique voice and amazing lyrics... he just puts it all out there, very emotional stuff

if you get a chance to check out the austin city limits with him, i suggest you do, i think it was the one with ben folds on it

I saw him at the Xmas Jam, and he was awesome. It seemed that he was distraught or something; I'm not sure if thats how he always is, but he never talked to the crowd, he just got up played a set said thank you and walked off.

I think he has social anxiety or some kind of anti-social disorder
