This singer was recommended to me by the Jonathan Scwartz radio show on NPR. I remembered the name from 20 years ago but was not familiar with the artist.
Really nice rendition of cover songs and originals(?).
Mr Stigers has a suave, dark bluesy voice. Not as heavy on the tenor sax as one would expect, since I believe that is the instrument he is known for. I will be looking into some of his older cds.
Some of my other favorite artists are Michael McDonald, Adele, Joe Cocker, Gavin Degraw and James Blunt.

Not that it's entirely apparent on first listen. Its ten tracks may take in everything from wistful alt-country (Hayes Carll's "Chances Are"), vintage Stax soul (Eddie Floyd's "Oh, How It Rained"), and even atmospheric dream pop (the Blue Nile's title track), but their similar organic production and achingly slow tempos mean it ...
