Our favorite Swedish Argentine who writes the most beautiful songs (in English) that just make you want to cry. In a good way... but not because they’re happy. Because they’re beautiful. It’s just José González and his guitar, and the music is about as pure as music can be. (Can you tell we’re enamored?!?!)His new album In Our Nature is much darker than Veneer, and a true work of art. Buy the album. Go to the show. We were blown away by him back in October, and are looking forward to checking him out again now....

Here’s some official bio stuff from his website (read more at http://www.myspace.com/josegonzalez and listen to the whole --new-- CD at www.myspace.com/josegonzalez):
