Pete Yorn is a great singer songwriter from New Jersey. He rose in popularity back in 2001 with the single “Life On a Chain” from his debut musicforthemorningafter. That album yielded one more minor hit in the form of “For Nancy (‘Cos It Already Is).” That’s the song that really made me take note of him. He followed up in 2003 with Day I Forgot which had some really good songs but didn’t see as much commercial success. Last year he released his third full length entitled Nightcrawler. Yorn noted in an interview that his first three albums follow a chronological order beginning with morning, moving to day, and ending with night. I hadn’t even noticed that before but it obviously makes sense. Nightcrawler is some of Yorn’s most interesting work yet. Today’s song is one of my favorites from the record and it also contains another one of my favorites of his “Undercover” which originally appeared on the soundtrack to the first Spiderman movie back in 2002. Yorn also recently released a five song EP entitled Westerns which contains some more alt-country inspired tracks which are also very good. He’s currently working on a new record and plans to tour for most of 2008.
