    commented on a project

    At the risk of embarrassing David, I'm going to say he's being modest. He is a shy but talented and idiosyncratic musician. He self-funded an album with his previous band, Valediction (of Portland). He didn't mention that but he probably should have, since it shows a track record of following through. I think the end result will be delicate and haunting, but in no contrived way. Listen to his demos. Try to get him to post some of the Valediction songs, too.
