Danny Brown – Guitar Solo

August 15th, 2011

Fools Gold signee and all around amazing enigma Danny Brown announced that he will be releasing his first LP XXX on Fools Gold for free this week.

I don’t know whether it’s the excellent story telling, the simplicity of the hook or the guy in the Seattle fitted playing guitar in off-putting places such as a hospital or outside a convenience store.
