Currently top 20 on the AAA chart. When I first heard it I had no idea who it was, I thought at first it sounded a bit classic rockish. I like it.

I just picked up his album at the library. I like it, but need to give it a few more listens to make a final impression. Kind of bluesy rock. Do you know anything about him?

Do you know anything about him? No, not really. A friend told me about him and how he liked him but I've only heard 2 or 3 songs from him. Bluesy, southern is a good way to describe it. |

I saw this guy as the opening act in a Maroon 5 w/Gavin DeGraw supporting club tour right when "Harder to Breathe" was breaking out. This guy loses a LOT in the studio. GREAT, GREAT, GREAT live act. I'm disappointed in studio material, mainly because it just isnt as good as his live material.

Great album. We've been playing "home" since September and still get lots of phones.
He's from Lafayette Louisiana; daddy Ted is in the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame so he grew up in a soulful music household. Jams with lots of New Orleans staples, Neville Brothers, etc.
Chicks dig his cuteness too.

I just gave this album a good listen while reading the lyrics. I love his voice. So unique and soulful. He sounds so much older than 22 and so much like a soul artist. I think the lyrics are kind of sappy and generic at times. He needs to get away from some of the cliches that riddle his songs. And the rhymes that are just so predictable. But he definitely has great potential. And since you say he's great live, I'll be keeping my eye out for him to hit town.

I think they're gonna give 'Where You Are' a second try, it went for adds on Hot AC this week. I think that's a good idea, the song is awesome, haven't heard 'Home' yet.

Marc made a surprise stop at my Hot AC radio station a couple of weeks back. He performed "Home" live. His speaking voice is very low and gravelly. He started the song and about 30 seconds in his guitar string broke. They took a break and then came back and started all over. He was great.
Ever since that day, they have been playing "Home" on that station. I really am sort of surprised by this cuz it doesn't really fit the format of this particular station, IMO. I like the song, but I think there are songs on that CD that I like better.

^^ I've never heard it.. But i don't think so. Why would he cover a song that just came out a few months earlier, and is still gaining at AC..

Awesome artist! I must admit that his material is a little on the generic side, but there's nothing generic about his voice. I picked up his album because of how much I liked "Where You Are," and I was pleasantly surprised at how solid the album was. Great upbeat album for summer weather. I've heard so much about his live performances, it'd be great to see him here.
