Thoughts on Ian Elliott?
I found him through some reels and he's remarkably Hozierish, in sound, style, and lyrical content. Today for the first time I listened to "Someone Less Good" and I'm a little put off by how much it sounds like Hozier's "Would That I," especially the choruses. I'm a musician, so I do understand that there's only so many chord progressions that sound good and are acceptable in the ears of Western mainstream music. I'm not accusing the guy of copying Hozier, at least not intentionally. I just feel a little weird about the similarities here. Am I thinking too much about it? What are our thoughts?
