Drinking with a girl should be in everyones jukebox. An upbeat elliott smith but not as hip hoppy as J MRAZ . I saw him open for j mraz last year in Santa Barbaa and really enjoyed him. You need to see him live than the cd will just knock your scoks off.

I bought this CD last night after hearing Chacon play live at The Bluebird Cafe, where he electrified the crowd with a mixture of lyrical depth, vocal talent, and stage presence.

I defy you to listen to "Murder" and be unmoved by the raw honesty of the vocals, to say nothing of the haunting guitar chords and lyrics that belie their author's youth. This emotional intensity permeates the album, especially tracks like "I Want To," "Drinking With a Girl," and the incomparable "Walking Through the Day," a song that sounds wholly different (and equally beautiful) acoustically.

If we are lucky, this will be but the first taste of what Chacon has to offer.

I saw Thom Chacon open for Jason Mraz years ago and was blown away by his honest and truthful music. His songs touched my musical heart with the sincerity in each lyric. A MUST HAVE album. I'm still waitng for more from him.
