Solid songwritingGreg the Phoenix wrote on November 20, 2008
This is nothing short of folk perfection. Beautiful guitar lines, heartfelt emotion, and some of the best lyrics I've ever heard. He wears his heart on his sleeve, tells stories like they were written in a novel and has a beautiful command for singing. Why he isn't signed to a major record label remains a mystery. A true top notch talent! You will not be disappointed. I'm told his live show is the stuff of legends.
