I went to see Mumford and Sons play at Gateshead the other week (they were GREAT - and note-perfect even live!), but my real surprise was how much I enjoyed one of the support acts - this chap*: King Charles.
Ignore the silly hair (okay, so that's not possible) - he does catchy contemporary folk-pop with some clever lyrics that don't always scan.
He had me at "Beware romantic gestures: they're investments in your vanity."
I have a severe case of Writer's Envy now.
I bought his CD.
But this one's just silly:
*He most definitely is a Chap - he makes James Blunt look working class. (And he, ahem, went to my old university.)

It's the waxed moustache. The ladies can't resist a waxed moustache...
I love the legs in the stripy tights!
You should let him know you blogged about him, I'm sure all his friends will be jealous.
But not his Dad, who is head of the Alpha Movement in the UK *snrk*
You definitely have to let him know you name checked him then.
:-D
Oh, I'd wax his moustache, alright ;)
Naughty Jo!
