Amos Lee - Last Days at the Lodge
Norah Jones discovered him and it seemed that Lee would be groomed as a male version of the laid-back chanteuse. But the Philly singer carved out his musical turf, blending Bill Withers and James Taylor influences into a pleasant soul-pop sound. And he made his own discovery: rising folk star Priscilla Ahn, now signed to the same Blue Note label. Lee’s latest finds him moving in a rock-oriented direction on edgy songs like “Listen” and “Truth.” And he turns rap evangelist on the inspired “Street Corner Preacher.”
