This guy seems to have emerged as the indie scene's biggest new star. To attest to this, his recently announced tour went on sale today and literally sold out a minute after they were available (for big city shows). They went on sale at 12:00pm today and were gone at 12:01pm (this is from a first hand account of someone trying to buy a ticket for the Bowery Ballroom show). Not to mention he is achieving such a status at age 22 and with only one album released (the self titled just came out a month ago). To build such a name for himself in such limited time is quite impressive.
The next thing to do is describe his music. It would be something of the soft-ambient-electronica variety. Even though that isn't really a real variety, it seems to fit. His video also seems to have that same kind of element. Instead of softening the sounds, he blurs the image as to show you that it's there but not really see it clear enough to give it perfect distinction. Regardless, seeing this sound achieved live must be quite a site to see.
