Subtle Veneer

Swedish singer/songwriter Jose Gonzalez -- whose album Veneer (Amazon | iTunes) has been one of my favorite albums from the past year -- got a nice feature on NPR's All Things Considered this afternoon. You can also listen to a short set of his at NPR's World Cafe (which includes his emo-style cover of the perky Kylie Minogue tune, "Put Your Hand on Your Heart"). And don't forget that mesmerizing colored balls video from the post below.
