Pete Yorn - musicforthemorningafter (2001)

Pete Yorn seemed to be every hipster's dirty little secret. No one wanted to admit that they actually liked him and his raspy voice, but every time a song from musicforthemorningafter would be on the radio, jukebox, TV or club speakers, you'd find half the room nodding or singing along.

Because of Pete Yorn, no one had to worry about admitting that maybe, possibly, they liked John Meyer's first album.
