I was so freaken excited when I found out that the insanely talented Allen Stone would be the one opening up for Andrew McMahon on his solo tour at the Phoenix in Toronto earlier in the summer. If you are a fan of soul/r&b music, then you seriously need to check this guy out. He is talented beyond his years and has one of the most soulful voices I have heard in a long freaken time. This year he has performed on pretty much every late night talk show there is and its just a matter of time before you are hearing his name everywhere. I first saw him back when he performed with Andrew and his band Jacks Mannequin over a year ago at the Sound Academy and he blew me away then. The show at the Phoenix was fantastic, he had the crowd dancing and when his set was over, everyone chanted his name and forced him back out onto the stage. Allen ended up playing on the side of the stage, standing on the monitor, acoustic, with just his voice and his guitar, and it was pure amazingness. I highly suggest you check out Allen and I am sure you will fall in love like I did.
