Matt Dusk, Two Shots

I stole Matt Dusk's CD "Two Shots." Well...sort of, I comfiscated it from a girlfriend of mine who wasn't looking! I have not stopped listening to it. I put it in my CD player in my car, drive to work, put it in the CD player at work for everyone to hear, drive home, put it in my CD player at home and listen! I have always been a fan of this style of music for its simplicity. Dusk's voice is extremely refreshing and is purely enjoyable!

I recently purchased Two Shots, the debut album by Matt Dusk after seeing him perform on Fox's new show called "The Casino". After I saw him perform with a determination to bring the casino in the show back to the way Vegas used to be, I thought his CD would be a good investment. While it is his debut CD, I feel as though he has many years of training as a singer, for he pays great hommage to the jazz greats from before his era. I was amazed at the artists who have contributed to this project, including Bono from U2, the Beatles (well not directly, but he did cover them), the Toronto Symphonic Orchestra, and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra are both featured on the CD. His talent is confirmed by his ability to carry many different tunes, while he expresses heartfelt emotions through his poetic lyrics. My favorites are "Two Shots" (The remix at the end), "Five", and "Don't Go Looking", but the CD is wonderful as a whole.
