Thom Hell

"This perfect mix of instrumental pieces and honest vocals should'nt be missed"

I've been meaning to listen to Thom Hell's music earlier, but with the ever going list of new music, last week I had a first listen to his last album, and loved it! The album is full of catchy folk rock/pop songs, perfect for singer-songwriter lovers like me. Some of the songs have beautiful instrumental interludes, that give the album just that little extra. Recommended!
