A thoughtful, nicely written piece about the ever-amazing Patrick Wolf. His emergence is so exciting, as you say, because he is a true artist whose work can be both honest and appealing. I would add that in addition to the depth he brings to his music, his versatility is just staggering. He’s a brilliant lyricist, a strong singer, a versatile musician and composer, and a phenomenal performer (not to mention an articulate interviewee). It may yet be early in his career, but I dare say we could be watching a legend in the making.
