Has anyone heard this guy? His covers are freakin' great. The Boys should consider hiring him to do Brian's parts on stage.

He does some fantastic covers, doesn't he!?

He's a regular poster here, too. He can pick out each harmony in any BB song and recreate it perfectly - just incredible.

God must’ve smiled the day Brian Wilson was born!

If this guy really does post here, I'd love to have a clean copy of this and try to make a backing track for it.

That's rather uncanny. I wonder if he naturally sounds like Brian or if he's doing an impression.

My God, he sounds just like Brian.  Let's get this guy to record missing SMiLE lead vocals (DYLW definately comes to mind)!

I've listened to most of his Beach Boys covers (and there are a lot), all fantastic.  He sure does have a knack for picking out parts and singing them incredibly well!

I also thought of that! DYLW, LTSD, CIFOTM, Even a cleaner run of H&V version (original single) with the 'free-score five'

If he is as awesome as all of youse claim here, they should lock him into Brian's keyboard on stage, and  make him sing all the delicate parts.

I heard him for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and was so impressed, I shared 3 of his videos on my Facebook wall!  His version of "She Knows Me Too Well" is  particularly impressive!

I'd like to hear his take on SMiLE's vocals as well.

It's very impressive that he can do every part himself, although that also results in a little bit of "sameness" to the parts and a lot of mike noise, so it would still be better if he were accompanied by another vocalist or two. They'd have to be as good as he is though.
