James Vincent McMorrow makes music that's best listened to with your eyes closed. Preferably in a dimly lit room, at dusk. Make sure you keep your ears wide open though, because you won't want to miss any of his velvety notes, which seem to cut through your chest and hit you right in the ticker.

It all sounds a little gruesome, but what we're getting at is that the Irish songwriter sure knows how to pull on your heartstrings. His second album Post Tropical was released earlier this month, and if you'd like a taste test before you jump in for the full-blown musical feast, just hit play on the clip to the left.
