Listen Immediately: Joe Pug

Joepug The singer songwriter genre is riddled with talented people who write B-minus/C-plus songs, which only adds to the surprise when you stumble upon someone who writes truly great ones  With "Hymn 101" Chicago's Joe Pug literally stunned me.  The song is a gorgeous display of lyricism and melody, and it makes a strong case that Pug could hold his own with heavyweights of the genre like Richard Buckner and M. Ward. The singer is putting finishing touches on his first EP which will be released this fall.

I'd be hard put to come up with a better suggestion for the next four minutes of your life than to listen to this song.
