Paolo Nutini
Atlantic
Three stars
Nutini’s voice is soulful and passionate and should have a longer staying power than the whiney disposition of James Blunt. “New Shoes,” his first single, is a bluesy power-pop song that is a bit misplaced in the more reflective Streets, but still is a nice addition to the chorus-heavy record.
Sounds like: James Blunt, Caleb Followill
