On Joe Manning

[brightlights]

I didn't actually get the opportunity to hear this guy, but I've heard from very reputable sources that he was awesome. He opened for Rachel's (a chamber post-rock band that I highly recommend to the music lover) just the other day when they played the Wexner in Columbus, OH. First off, I'm a huge Iron and Wine fan and apparantly this guy is very similar. He's bearded (both Sam Beam and Joe), not unlike myself, which is another bonus. The thing is: Joe is impossible to find. Amazon doesn't have him. I was planning on checking the local indie shop the next time I went to campus, but that'll be a ways off. Has anyone heard of him or heard him?

I'm not familiar with him, but if he is anything like Iron and Wine, he deserves a listen.
