I'm impressed by Jack White. From the White Stripes to his project with Loretta Lynn to his new blues album and everything in between is a broad range of styles and he really seems to immerse himself in each genre he tries. He doesn't come across as a shallow poser to me but more like a kid in a candy store exploring all the different ways to express himself musically. I'm heading out to pick up his new album today. I agree with the Ryan Adams recommendation, too. I think these two guys are deeply intellectual in their approach to music and are going to be around for a long time and produce huge and varied bodies of work similar to what Randy Newman has given us.
Varying ways in which artists approach their music
Every now and then, while discovering different artists, I come across a few that strike me as coming from a more intellectual perspective. This is the subject of this thread.
I'm curious if any of you feel this way and if so, what recommendations do you have?
Three of mine are:
Sufjan Stevens
Mark Kozelec
Andrew Bird
