Amos Lee - Careless

This is something like a folk/RnB crossover - blatantly soulful vocals, and a plodding piano. But I really like this: it's uber-acoustic, with an imperfect raw voice. It's not the world's most original song, but it's nicely done.

I reckon music's like food: sometimes you want something amazing, sometimes you just want comfort-music. This is macaroni and cheese in musical form: slightly stodgy and deeply reassuring.

Amos Lee isn't famous yet, but he's been signed, which is unsurprising given how easy this is to listen to. Watch this space.
