Just an update re Vic Chesnutt, he is in a coma and not deceased as widely reported.

Kirsten Herch's twitter site here seems the best source of information. Sorry about the false info earlier

There are conflicting stories, I thought his death was confirmed last night but all news outlets have changed their headlines back to coma, it seems so extremely serious.



From Billboard:

Vic Chesnutt, a singer-songwriter from Athens, Ga. known for his painful and poignant songs, is in a coma after an apparent suicide attempt.

The news about the singer's condition first spread through the Internet on Wednesday through Twitter posts by former Throwing Muses singer Kristin Hersh, who has collaborated with Chesnutt.

"Another suicide attempt, looks bad, coma--if he survives, there may be brain damage," said Hersh in one of her posts. "This time, it's real scary: *this* time, he left a note, *this* time, he asked them to call me."

Chesnutt, 45, has been in a wheelchair since a car accident when he was 18, and was discovered in the late '80s by R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe, who produced his first two albums. Since then, Chesnutt has released 13 more albums, including two this year, "At the Cut" and "Skitter on Take-Off."

Adrian,

I think that you will like it. Mathias Landaeus has a distinct style on the piano. Sound is impeccable as always with MA.
