His name is Mister Alex Goot, and don't let his silly curly 'do and glasses fool you- the man's got mad talent. I stumbled across his Music Myspace page via a friend, and once I heard "Scared" I was hooked. His style is almost sickishly Pop-Rock, but for some reason I can tolerate it ... as long as it's coming from him. He hails from New York and is the phenomenon known as a one-man-band. That's right: he sits down and starts with the drums, lays a guitar over it, adds in some wicked piano keys, sings his *cough* self-written *cough* lyrics, and BAM! The song is in full fruition. Whether you dig his sugar music or not, you have to respect the fact that Sir Goot here is what I like to call a REAL musician (which is a major step up from those bubble-gum Pop Disney singers who seem to be racking up the record sales). But also, let me not fail to acknowledge the fact that he is currently unsigned - huge boo to you, major record corporations. The boy is adorable served on a stick! The teenagers no doubt will eat this stuff up! If music categorized as Pop is all we have to hear on the radio, why not as well throw some incredible talent in there? Even if it is sugary-sweet! Tisk tisk.
