Paolo Nutini - Sunny Side Up
Born to an Italian father and a Scottish mother, Paolo was once described as having “the face of a Benetton model and the voice of a 50-year-old soak.” Just 22, Paolo has already tasted success: his debut album, These Streets, sold two million copies and drew James Blunt comparisons. On his latest, the Paisley troubadour tries to distant himself from a commercial sheen, opting for rougher sounds on such disparate tunes as the Caribbean-flavored “High Hopes” and the country-tinged “Simple Things.” Oddly eccentric.
