Not so new NMM: Damien Rice

Monday, September 8, 2008

I was introduced to Damien Rice by my wife Nicole about 2 years ago. Soon after, I purchased his CD, 9. I immediately fell in love. You have probably heard of him, I am not sure how "underground" he is anymore. But at any rate, it is worth talking about. The raw sound of a personally recorded album really gets to me. I LOVE it. I just love the concept of recordings that actually expose the talents of the musician, not the talents of the recording technician or his abilities master a CD and make it sound better than the artist would actually sound if you were to hear him playing his song in your living room.

The song "accidental babies" it probably my favorite song on the CD. He is not only a great vocalist and guitarist, but also plays the piano phenomenally. Hope you all like it.

His voice has a very soothing quality that I like.

I also really like your blog redesign. Good job!

Thanks:-) And yes, he has a very unique voice that I LOVE. I love the "lazy" voice. Where it doesn't sound like a lot of effort is being put into it.
