When I first heard Blower's Daughter from Closer, it honestly left me speechless. Listened to some of his other stuff too—man, the guy’s got a world-class voice. Anyone else listening to him?

I was listening to him all night yesterday...............and my girlfriend just absolutely lost it on him😁

Even that Blower's Daughter song—and can't take my eyes off you—is officially "ours" now😎

Look, he’s got a cool voice and his delivery is solid, but in my book? He’s nowhere near the top tier of singer-songwriters—not even close🙂

Man, 😍
is such a killer track.
My go-to is Wonderful Tonight. Though I might switch it up. 🙂

Check out Amie. It's beautiful.

It’s not just that he leaves listeners speechless; people online are saying the audience is just as stunned... apparently, his stage presence is all over the place, too. He's certainly a versatile character, I'll give him that...

Lost it?!?!😕

Those guys just aren't hitting the mark for me. Since we're already discussing Damien... I honestly think Jurado is the superior choice. 😁

That's basically just some hyper-local slang from back home--not really something you'd hear much outside our specific neck of the woods.😉

Look, I mean, this is what I'm actually interested in😁 😁

Before we had this version, we were listening to that Mark Lannegan track... I'll take care of you😎 😁

Isn't Damien just this total villain—you know, the one with that mole shaped like three sixes?

I've only ever heard that one track myself.

Just a boring, moody guy who needs to be taken out by having his own songs played on loop...

For me, it's "Cold Water." Every single freaking time, I get goosebumps...

Stunning indeed. 🙂 Look, maybe Damien isn't quite the ultimate singer-songwriter icon—I don't know, who's really grading him?—but you have to hand it to him... there's this raw, quiet intimacy in his tracks that most artists just can't touch.

I completely get the people who think this stuff is basically garbage and that forcing someone to listen to this kind of music would be a form of torture. At the same time, I can see why some folks might actually find a certain pleasure in such delicate melodies. Usually, though, my own mood lands me firmly in that first camp.

Cheers Darlin' is easily the best track 👍

I don't know, just can't get into that track. It won't happen. Something about it feels off. But Amie and Blower's Daughter? Or even Cheers Darlin'? Pure perfection. 👍

Holy hell, this guy's voice is insane 😲 When he starts "AND SO IT IS" 😲 It's unreal. Seriously. If he actually played that and sang it right in front of me, I think I'd just pass out. 😵 😁
