Subject: I love this song! Bear...small world!!

The song is called "HOME" by Marc Broussard. Its played on our older rock station here in Atlanta. I LOVE IT!!!

I couldn't figure out who sang it and finally found out today. I went to read up on the guy, the album is called CARENCRO (where he's from...cajun country!) I didn't even care to sample the rest of the songs, I immediately bought the whole album! Listening to it now...

I'm with you!  I fell in love with "Save Me" so I bought the album, and realized that Home was an even better song.  How is that kind of sound coming out of a white boy in his 20s? 

Good Stuff!!

Yep, he's a young home boy, lot of talent, lot of soul. Played a monster set at Festivale International here back in April.

My wife was a Broussard (before I improved her station in life), swears she's related to him.

If you're diggin Marc Broussard, there's a whole pile of interesting artists similar... David Gray, Jason Mraz, Gavin DeGraw (the pop one out of the bunch), Elliot Smith, Guster, Jack Johnson (west coast surfer, awesome!, chris isaak without the yodeling), Jeff Buckley, Matt Nathanson, Teitur.  They're all kind in that throaty guy with guitar genre. 

And who could forget the Chipoltes.

They play him a lot on my local station too. The first time I heard "Home" I had to call and ask who it was and what song/album.

I did not believe that a white guy at 22 was singing that song! Amazing.
bear, my mom is going to see him at some free Park concert in New Orelans sometime soon, she likes him too. I called her yesterday to share my excitement about finding this guy, and she replied "oh, I've had that album for 6 months and I'm going to see him soon."  Burst my bubble.

Yes, I have David Gray and Jack Johnson. I love  most of the stuff that comes out of the south too (Cowboy Mouth, Better than Ezra, TX boys, etc.)

Jeff Buckley and Elliot Smith were both great singer/songwriters.  Tragic they both died so young.
