This fantastic EP showcases Jay Brannan's incredible talent.
Brilliant lyrics (smart, funny and plain beatiful), catchy melodies and a voice out of this world.
Once you hear the music, you become a fan instantly.
I would have rated more stars but 5 seems to be the max here.

Look for Jay Brannan as an actor in John Cameron Mitchell's movie SHORTBUS (2006). He's also featured on the movie soundtrack with his hit "Soda Shop".

Jay is an amazing artist - very talented young man with a stunning voice and unique guitar skills. He taught himself to play, which just makes the music that much more impressive!

This album is a good starting point, but be sure to check out Goddamned and In Living Cover, too. I listen to his music nearly everyday and never get tired of it.

He also has some interesting and entertaining vids on youtube, so search around there, too. Oh, and he tours several months out of every year, all over the world and at intimate venues, so you have a good chance of seeing him live and actually getting to hear the performance, too.

He's the ONLY artist I've ever heard perform live who sounds even more soulful and rich in person than he does in his recordings. If you ever use ustream, check out his live broadcasts. He sometimes sings - even while doing the dishes - and I swear it's breathtaking, even via webcam.

I just downloaded it as part of my Amazon.com Promotional Credit. I am not surprised that I love it! His voice is awesome and the story his song tells is great! Buy it, buy the album! Oh, and if you dig him like I do (I have tickets for his Mpls show next month) check his tour dates: [...]. Support independent artists!

This EP is a great way to start out an introduction to Jay Brannan but my god, check out his album. All four songs are great but I'd have to say Unstable Boy and 26-hour day are my favorites.

Such a talent.
