James Morrison
I’m certainly not the kind of person who refuses to listen to mainstream music. Sometimes artists find fame overnight because their music honestly deserves that much attention. But when it comes to pop these days, it seems to me like the only listenable stuff is coming from other countries who don’t manufacture their pop stars like we do.
James Morrison is a solid artist (from Rugby, Warwickshire) whose raspy, soulful voice often presents Stevie Wonder-like qualities. His lyrics are genuine, heartfelt, and old-school. Beautiful work.

Follow me on Twitter @biancasauceda Music shouldn’t be about “getting there first” or a focus on being seen liking a genre of music rather than actually enjoying the music itself. Music is not fashion, it is literature. Music is linked to people. People are linked to stories. And stories are linked to music.
