Californian one-man band Ten Cent Club switches between Tom Waits-alike songs about casual violence, a pastoral instrumental and jazzy late night songs on his debut EP Postcards From The Sun. Despite being all over the place it somehow all fits, with only a low budget holding him back to fully realise his vision - a proper drummer should be on the top of the list once he gets his hands on a amount of cash.
As a songwriter he is obviously influenced by the underground and film soundtracks in equal measures. Being on the fence opens up opportunities from both sides, so by not making a choice he can turn his songs it into something that sounds familiar, but also a bit off in a good way.
Postcards From The Sun is a self-released EP. Buy it from his website.
