Alright, most of you guys have probably never heard of this guy.
He was born in Prague 27 years ago. He would become a REAL Christmas Miracle, born on December 24th.
I'm not sure how he did it, but he has this god-given talent of music and writing music. He wrote his first song, Supernothing, at Age 15 for his band "Gimp" with his brother, Achilles, on violin.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=mDDEg1iDFZE <– Probably won't like this: warning, or the one before this.
There's the sped up version, in Keasbey Nights by Catch 22 (Who I'll explain later and Streetlight Manifesto, which I'll also explain later. I tend to like the sped up version more, but his Gimp version is just clear that this is not your average human being).
Then, still in High School, now playing as the lead singer, rhythm guitar, song-writer for Catch 22, he made one of the most popular ska songs, Keasbey Nights.
He moved onto his next project, BOTAR (Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution), which I am just hooked on. They are a very large band somewhere inbetween ska and classical music. Here's "Here's To Life" <– Won't like this either
You can see how deep those lyrics mean. It kind of puts me in awe. I just love the violin/cello/piano, I believe they complement the Streetlight Manifesto version fantastically. <– There's where it's at.
So, after Catch 22, he brought the band to a new name, Streetlight Manifesto, where they have released 3 albums. A remake of Keasbey Nights, Everything Goes Numb, and recently, Somewhere in the Between
You can wikipedia any of these albums and find a song to listen to on youtube. They are all fantastic. Majors hits though include "Keasbey Nights", "Everything Went Numb", "A Better Place, A Better Time". Although I can listen to anything he's made, especially the brand new album. Can't get enough of that.
I believe it's amazing how talented this guy is. Just wondering what any of you think of his music and if you agree with me. It's just magic watching his works unfold.
