One of my favorite movies ever.

He wrote and played everything, and recorded everything himself in his own studio he built on all his 3 albums.

Pretty talented dude.

He was like Macca's American cousin ...

He played every instrument, wrote every song, and recorded them himself in his home studio.

It's all very McCartney-influenced, so if you like Sir Paul you're likely to dig most of it.

He also made his first album in 43 years in 2016, with a whole bunch of excellent guest artists. It's actually really good as well.
