The name has in fact been flying around for a while; all on-the-ball bloggers pricked up their ears a while ago and wrote their insightful blurbs. But better to jump on the band wagon late than never (possibly?!) so here I go. A young man of 18, O. Chapman continues to spread his gruff tones and folk blues around our fair capital. His voice works so well with Faith Barker, who you can hear as the female vocalist in duets - and as a general songwriter he is very much up there. If you want to catch him then take a look at his gig list here. Otherwise soak it all in. It'll go down smooth.
While these live versions are great, the finished product is just as, if not more, beautiful so I'd recommend checking out his myspace.
