Anyone heard of him? Not to big on the mainstream, but definitly not somone to be overlooked. In " Say yes to Michigan" he plays i think 20 different instruments alone! He's crazy talented!

If anyone is interested, archive.org has an awesome boot of one of his concerts. It makes me really wanna see him the next time he comes to my area.

I have the same albums Steph!

He's odd... but I like him :) Very different from almost anything out there right now, yet really easy to listen to. His music's really grown on me.

there's only four seasons
and this one's almost gone
these nights feel so good
but this one's almost gone

I loooove Sufjan Stevens!  My friend from California got me into him.  Amazingly talented.

I got really really obsessed so I downloaded all of his albums!!! Aargh! They're so good but I'm such a reckless spender in iTunes.

he reckons he's going to write an album for each state of America .. so how many will that make?

He's awesome .. his song the tallest man the broadest really got me into him and i've been loving him ever since.

And big props to him from Snow Patrol who in one song lyrics they say
"put sufjan stevens on .. we'll play our favourite song" ..
