Idiot Glee

Add Date: June 7 

Artist: Idiot Glee 

Album: Paddywhack 

Label: Moshi Moshi 

Genre: Rock, pop 

Comments: With a voice eerily reminiscent of Fleet Foxes' Robin Pecknold and a musical style that falls somewhere between the haunting folk pop of Timber Timbre and '50s doo-wop, Kentucky musician James Friley has crafted a very intriguing debut album as Idiot Glee. With a little bit of Motown and some Brian Wilson thrown in for good measure, Paddywhack is well worth a listen. Spin tracks 2, 4, 8 and 3.
