            I guess conservatives first liked him, now he is getting bad feedback from them because he said this on a Fox News interview:

            “We are the melting pot of the world and that’s what makes us strong, is our diversity. We need to harness that and appreciate it and not use it as a political tool to keep everyone separate from each other.”

            He just can't win. LOL

                        Modern music is all milquetoast hooks in 2 minutes or under, within a very narrow band of beats per minute, and vocal affectations employed to hide a shameless amount of autotune. Oh and don't forget the TikTok theatrics.

                        This guy's doing none of that shit. I'll take his imperfect voice, simplistic guitar playing and okay lyrics because it isn't contrived. Good for him. I hope he dominates the YouTube discover for months because something like this should.

                        Please love yourself.

                            I wasn't expecting to hear "zen koan" in those lyrics. Nice song.

                                  I agree. He ain’t no Guy Clark or even a Gram Parsons, but he’s got something and his own sound. Just the fact he can pull it off on a cheap Gretsch resonator says something by itself .

                                    His voice is substantially older than he is. That throws me off a bit watching the videos. He sounds like he’s a 50-60 year old coal miner… Great emotion and good stuff. Not sure that I would sit through 75 minutes of the same, but yeah… OK…

                                          So, has this guy taken over from sea shanties? I was quite enjoying that internet fad, and now apparently it's this.

                                          I guess it's back to Michael Brecker and Chris Potter for me.

                                          I was only joking
