Editorial Reviews

2009 sophomore album from the singer/songwriter. Produced by Jacquire King (Kings of Leon, Modest Mouse, Tom Waits), the record includes a new arrangement of Pigg's fantastic single 'Falling In Love At A Coffee Shop.' Since the release of his debut album in 2006, this unique and enigmatic artist has had an incredibly productive and creative period. Landon concentrated on writing new material for The Boy Who Never, writing over 20 new songs during sessions in Nashville, New York and Los Angeles. Best known for being part of the 2007 A Diamond Is Forever holiday season commercial, the track is currently spotlighted in AT&T's latest ad campaign. 26-year-old Pigg is also making his feature film debut later this year co-starring opposite Ellen Page in the Drew Barrymore directed film Whip It.

5.0 out of 5 stars So beautiful!, September 30, 2009

I've anticipated Landon's follow-up album for quite some time. This album easily surpassed all of my expectations. Landon took his time to write sweet, thoughtful lyrics and accompany them with some of the most beautiful piano/cello/string arrangements that I have ever heard. The songs are beautiful, touching, and sweet - it is a very relaxing album and a pleasure to listen to over and over again. Great job, Landon! Favorites include "Look So Tired," "Blue Skies," "A Ghost," and the newly-arranged "Falling In Love At A Coffee Shop."

p.s. Everyone who is writing low-starred reviews and complaining about the "high" song prices -- give me a break, please. MP3s have been priced at 1.29 for months now - where have you been? Buy the physical album for $8.99 and save a few dollars. CDs > MP3s, anyway.

Why do dopes come on here and leave low marks for prices especially when they agree to buying the songs? Ratings are for the product/music. I dont agree with the price either but if you want to pay less buy the whole album like I did and you will come to enjoy all songs and pay less than 99 cents for each...............dont be so cheap

5.0 out of 5 stars The Boy Who Never...a fan's appreciation, October 19, 2009

"The Boy Who Never" Album has very enjoyable music and lyrics that speak deeply to me and resonate joyously in my soul. There's a special magic for me to it because of its wide emotional range and breadth of evocative power. As a LP fan I frequently listen to it and his other albums with great relish and pleasure. I really enjoy Landon's voice and vocal technique in "The Boy Who Never". His musical arrangements are pretty captivating and his poetic lyrics are most engaging. They keep singing in my mind, heart and soul during the day, at bedtime and even in my dreams. I'm glad and thankful that he made this wonderful music out of his extra-ordinary giftedness. The world is a better place because of it, since his music and its themes have a real spirituality and motivating perspective to enrich the Human Spirit. We must be kindred spirits, of sorts, I guess. I'd recommend folks give it a try and stick with it to allow it to break through with the gift of a new, deeper and higher consciousness of metaphysical values since it searches the "Great Truths" which advance the understanding of the meaning of life. "The Boy Who Never" has so much "heart" it is a living Joy. WOW!!! Excellent work, Landon! Blessed are You...Thank You!!!
