The Tallest Man on Earth
Already has had his music out for a while. But seriously, what a fantastic name for an artist. It adds a whole other dimension to the music where the listener imagines everything through the eyes of this individual, imagining him as, well, the tallest man on earth. You feel his loneliness and alienation as the tallest man; it only adds to the sureness of each strum of his guitar.

Kurt Vile
I guess it's ironic that someone with such and off-color name is paired with an album called Constant Hitmaker (and yes, that's his real name). I'm sure he wanted to juxtapose that undertone. Among other sentiments- a pervasive sense of "blue collar nostalgia". I think it defiantly hearkens back to the composition of the music relating to the likes of Tom Petty, Springsteen ect. (Listen to Freeway). Just let his mumbling and murmuring drift on by...oh and he's the lead guitarist for The War on Drugs. Makes sense for sure.
