An Unlikely Discovery: Christopher Denny

I am not really into country music unless it is so alternative that it is just melancholic good music, like Iron & Wine or Magic Numbers. But I just found a closer to traditional alternative music that is as refreshing as Loretta Lynn.
And without further ado, (not like you haven't read the title of the post but whatever), I would like to introduce Christopher Denny and his amazing album Age Old Hunger.
His lyrics are full of love and his music is stripped from all impurities. It is just heart-felt. He is freakin' 23 people. He has that Devendra Banhart kind of pitchy whine that just makes him so cool. It just really touches you, makes you aware of how urbanly jaded you are. Makes you go back to the days of drive in movie theaters in the summer and root beer floats with a cherry on top.
You need to get this album... It is so good. This guy is going to be Johnny Cash one day... In his own way.
