We say
Somehow, extraordinary Philadelphia country-soul singer Amos Lee has remained a bit of a secret this side of the Atlantic. His fourth album - Mission Bell - went to the top of the album charts in the US upon its release earlier this year. Adele is a massive fan, and asked him to support her on a 15 date UK tour. Clearly respected amongst his peers, Amos has also toured with Norah Jones, Bob Dylan, Merle Haggard, Paul Simon and Elvis Costello. This great song is a clear show of the quality Amos Lee has, and is deserving of the accolades it is receiving in the US. His talent really deserves to be championed over here too. Amos' next London show is his own headlining slot at Shepherd's Bush Empire. Video.London Gig: January 21, O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire W12
