About

Jose Gonzalez

Label: Mute Records
With his crystal-clear singing voice and vibrant, classically-inspired playing, José González has been hailed as one of today's most remarkable new artists - testament to the irrefutable power of one man and a guitar. "Veneer" - the Swedish tunesmith's acclaimed Mute Records debut (reissued on April 4) - captures his magical sound in its purest state, simply beautiful and beautifully simple. Touching on a remarkable array of influences, from frank folk to classic pop to a dazzling spectrum of world music, songs such as "Lovestains" and the worldwide hit single, "Heartbeats," display an eloquence and majesty that make plain why the gifted young musician has already become an international sensation. "Veneer" marks José González as that true rarity, an artist whose work is both strikingly original and brilliantly timeless.
