Deft and Poignant
If you like Paul Curreri, check out Danny. These modern folk songs have a genuineness and pathos combined with a deft touch. If you download no other song, pick up "Stained Glass".

After hearing this I got the rest of his albums too. A real talent.
Be sure to check out This too shall Pass!
A fantastic album. Stained Glass sent chills down my spine every time I heard it for weeks. This Too Shall Pass is another incredibly rich song.
Danny Schmidt did it again. A subtle but effective kick in the nads. Don't dare pass this by.
A masterpiece album. His song writing really starts at the point most songs end. Understated arrangements with excellant musicians allow Danny Schmidt's singing and guitar to standout. Starting with "This Too Shall Pass" there are at least six songs individually worth the price of the album. "Stained Glass" is rapidly becoming his most well known song after reviews from Rich Warren (Chicago's WFMT and Sing Out Magazine). This song stands out so far that I wish my ipod allowed for a sixth star. Many reviewers seem to mention Leonard Cohen somewhere in their reviews, perhaps because of Danny Schmidts imagery and depth, perhaps because of his arrangements.
