Amos Lee

Lacey got me his first CD for Valentine's Day, and I absolutely love it. We kinda stumbled upon him while listening to the Last Kiss soundtrack, and he is an excellent songwriter. He is on Norah Jones' label, which isn't a surprise, once you hear his music. It is very soulful (as is his voice) and is mostly acoustic-guitar and piano driven. In fact, on his first album, he uses Norah Jones' band, the Handsome Band, and Norah even guest-stars on two of the tracks. It is a very stripped-down, mellow-vibed record, and is an excellent disc. I recommend it highly, especially if you like that kind of music.
