Post Jake Bugg
This dude, only 19, has a way with a tune and could develop into a major recording artist, I believe. I dig his voice and style; he almost splits the difference between Bob Dylan and Alex Turner, however unusual it sounds.

He is touring America in the fall. I am considering attending his D.C. gig. Anyone else a fan?

I just read some of an interview with him. I see why you like him.

I'll give his music a try though. I can look past ego. You didn't steer me wrong on Laura Marling.

I liked the album and still occasionally listen to it.

I didn't know there was a thread for Jake. That's cool. I really like his first album. He has a new single out that's from his second album that's to be released. The song is called What Doesn't Kill You and it's a bit more punk-ish than the songs from his first album. I really like it.

The more aggressive sound was disconcerting for me at first, but I dig it now.

The new album is produced by Rick Rubin, which is a fairly big career moment and vote of confidence for Jake.

Unfortunately, the quality of his output has gone down with every release. The new LP, while not unpleasant, very rapidly goes in one ear and out the other and is short on potent tunes.

Still haven't listened to it. Though he's playing live next week in a festival so I'll see him. His first two albums are still a nice play.

I thought he did a fine job on stage. People didn't like his voice (which I get) but the sound while he played was really great (as in this festival usually has shitty sound and later that evening they just confirmed that).

Main stage was The Coral, Jake, Gutterdammerung & Henry Rollins, Florence + the Machine, Wilco, The Kooks, PJ Harvey. Skunk Anansie were supposed to play, but they went on stage and apologized because Skin apparently had some back problems.

Then there were Django Django, Pennywise, Yeasayer, Barns Courtney and others.
