I've seen Conor live twice, my favorite gigs hands down. Shame he is a leftist cuck cos he's fucking ace
Agreed. He's my guilty pleasure.
Three times. I was hesitant to post because is also jewish...banker dad and all that. But he is in my opinion the best musical artist of the past 25 years hands down. Please feel free to share any comparable music with me that is a little more based.
Don't think he's jewish. Irish
I knew about the banker dad, not sure about him being jewish. He uses lots of religious imagery, mostly Christian so I assumed he was a Christian if he had any religion rather than just a belief in the higher power. He is pretty complex and some of his work is based. The People's Key comes to mind. He did/does suffer TDS and I get the impression he was abused as a kid and might be connected to the pizza scene, not actively but a victim maybe
I'm not sure there is anything comparable from other artists although I am fond of The Hotelier for something similar in terms of angst it reminds me of the first Desaparicidos album
Thanks for the recommendation.
He said his life was prett good growing up, no problems, every need cared for. Parents involved and loved him, lots of support.
That is one of my favorite things about him. It is all an act. The sadness and loneliness is self imposed, as it is for most of us.
I had a terrible childhood with a literal chapter in a book about my recovery from the trauma. I am not sad, but I am poor as fuck.
John Popper of Blues Traveler did a big revelation method for the music industry with t he song Hook. He talked in an interview about how he just makes up stories in his mind. None of their songs are really about anything or anyone real.
The album "The Ugly Organ" by Cursive is another great revelation of method album.
