M. Ward

I watched a young singer/songwriter by the name of M. Ward last night on Letterman and he sounded brilliant. He kind of has that old country/folk sound that reminds me of the "I'm Wide Awake It's Morning" Bright Eyes record and some of the mellower My Morning Jacket songs. (For anyone who knows that Bright Eyes record it is indeed Jim James of MMJ singing back up on the first song. I digress) Anway, I feel like I was suppose to see this guy because earlier in the day I was listening to our new Sirius radio in the car and M. Ward had a song featured that I enjoyed.

Check him out on Itunes.


On a side not MMJ has a two-disc live CD coming out in a month. If it's anything like their live show you are all in for a treat.
