Jacob Everett Wallace

Sorry that I've been falling behind on my posts again.  I've barely had time to breathe, with I think two nights at home in the last 3 weeks, and free time limited to an hour or two.  This guy's music is an intriguing blend of country and indie rock, and I rather like it.  It doesn't have much of a twang, but rather a really nice straightforward guitar rock and drum sound.  His vocals are quite compelling and powerful, the lyrics are insightful and very much gospel-focused, and the riffs are extremely catchy.  His voice and the overall style somewhat reminds me of John Bryant, or a less minimalist version of Jordan Ruiz.
