Default Stephen Fretwell

So this music retailer knew I'm into Damien rice, and drew my attention to Stephen Fretwell, saying, "Since you're into losers like Damien Rice [be assured that I stared my protest in disbelief at him at this point] he's a loser what? Singing about girls leaving him and all that stuff (very much paraphrased) so I think you might be interested in this..." <took out Stephen Fretwell's Magpie>

and I must say, I'm hooked. New York, Emily and Lost Without you are particular highlights. The only reason I should be posting this is for the anecdote above hah.

Fretwell is amazing, I love 'Emily' and do an average version myself in my set. 'Must be something in the water' (is that the title?) is my personal fave at the moment... He is the Northern Dylan, can't beat folk with that accent!
