purchased your latest cd. recently i've heard so many acoustic song writers in concert....went and purchased their cd cause I loved the raw sound of guitar and vocals. When I listened to the cd it included a fully mixed band.....what? why? I wanted the sound at the concert..... So I listen to your music and FIND what I am after. Music that is raw. powerful. well written. simple yet not. THANKS. Finally someone who gets it.

Your music reminds me of Joshua Radin's. Which is great! He's one of my favorite new artists. I'm definitely gonna have to pick up your albums now.

Wow. "Please Don't Go" had the same effect on me as toddmichaelr's first post. Glad to see a fellow Pittsburgher doing great things.

Funeral Dress made me stop everything I was doing and stare at the screen blankly. It's a beautiful song.
