He is on to something...
author: KD, Washington, D.C. (formerly Austin)I really dislike trying to make comparisons to other artist but...this vocal are like John Mayer but without all the things I HATE about John Mayer's music. The sounds and instrumentations are very original and new, however with a sound that has a pleasant familiar remembrance to songs and rhythms that have touched your soul. I look forward to hearing more...
