idk, I like the Stand Ins and also the Black Sheep Boy EP.

Kansas City single, Wake and Be Fine, Mermaid, and Our Life is not a Movie Maybe are all pretty good.

Black Sheep Boy is one of my favorite albums of all time. It's also my third most listened to album of the last seven years.

Aw, that's too bad. They're really fun live even though his voice can be pretty shaky at times. He makes that up with great energy, though. They just did a few shows playing Black Sheep Boy completely. I wish I had seen one of those.

yeah i've listened to a good bit of live performances online and his voice isn't always great

i haven't really checked their tour schedule in a long time, but i should...good concerts never come near me so i have to make somewhat of a trip out of it
