Skip's a Fickle Friend

So, I think I might have cheated on Ben...with Mat Kearney.

Last night, Lauren and I (the pledge continues...next up; Stars, Thriving Ivory, Guster and Clap Your Hands) went to Slim's to see Mat, Cary Brothers and The Fray. There wasn't really any need to stay for The Fray as I was already smitten with Mat. Yes, he's a little short; but, his Corbett-esque voice, his rocky attempts at rap and his new piano piece about a couple leaving New Orleans were so endearing and slightly haunting that I'm compelled to make an exception.

His new CD is out April 4th.
