Pedro should definitely be on the list o' recommendations as well. David
Bazan's a really great songwriter, imo. He's a Christian, but doesn't seem
to have much use for the conventional ways of looking at Christianity. "It's
Hard to Find a Friend" is probably my favourite, but "Winners Never Quit" is
also really good, although a bit louder than the others.
Elvis C. is the man, by the way. :)> I got to see him play a show in Denver
with Steve Nieve. Just the two of them. A piano and a vocalist (and
occasionally an acoustic guitar). Really amazing show.
