Allen Stone the best fff voice I have ever heard in concert

Anyone seen Allen Stone in concert?


I have seen most of the greats his voice is amazing.
He is amazing my favourite artist in concert along with Prince.


He is channelling Stevie Wonder vibe.

Took my friend a top pr guy who represents world famous artists and he thought he was amazing.

Allen is such a nice guy as well in life.

Anyone?

Saw him in Paradiso (Amsterdam) a few weeks back, great show! He sings effortlessly, very impressive voice. Good band as well, I really enjoyed myself.

He did a great (non-reggae) cover of a Bob Marley song, and made it his own. I can't remember which one it was though, very annoying...

Someone posted some Allen Stone videos a while back on one of the new music threads. I agree. His voice is very intense and soulful.

LADIES ... and gentlemen! He has a great, and also handsome, drummer who does not like shirts and somewhere in this 24 minutes and 47 seconds takes of said hateful garment. I'm just sayin that if you have on a shirt you are uncomfortable in, and do not take it off regardless of video cameras, I don't know what you are doing with your life.

Never heard Mr. Allen before. Sound pretty good, I'll listen to more of that.

Good voice, but his material is not much.

Yes the drummer likes taking his shirt off.

Allen is a sweetheart. Trying to get him on the Jools Holland show.

This is somewhat true. Apart from 2 or 3 songs the material wasn't very strong, just well executed. Allen doesn't add anything new to the genre (yet). Still a great voice though...

Well it ain't Innervisions but IMHO still some catchy songs on the album.

He only a baby so he can only get better.

I saw him at the Jazz Cafe in London and I have never seen a crowd go wild for anyone and I have seen everyone there.

I did do a search for thread on him noticed there was none.

Sharon Jones is looking out for him cos he a baba.

He did not know any Stevie Wonder albums until he was 17 and then he listened to him constantly for a year.

Black music was not played on the radio whilst he growing up.

He talked about it live from Daryl's house.

He is AMAZING live just like Prince.
