Because I used to work at a record company I still get tons of demos from aspiring artists. It makes no sense because "used to" means "now I'm a blogger and I don't do music biz anymore." Most of the demos aren't very good and I rarely pass them along to John or Blue Gal, let alone put them on LNMC. Today, however, a guy in Montana, Patrick Dwyer, sent me this simple performance YouTube he made of himself singing a Patty Griffin classic, Heavenly Day. What do you think? Should I send this guy to meet some A&R guys?

Can you help us out?
