Peter Adams
This guy from Cincinnati - he's barely 23 (and studied classical violin for 20 of those), writes sweet, multilayered pop songs, produced and recorded his entire first album, and he doesn't have a record deal? The Internet-age makes finding a savant like this easy, but damn it's kind of unfair. If anyone deserves a major marketing campaign, it's Peter Adams. The melodies and phrasing of Jeff Buckley come to mind. This orchestral production is mellow and flawless.
