Mark Gormley.
Don't know if anybody has ever heard of this guy or seen his videos. He is a singer songwriter from Pensacola and he made some extremely low budget, horribly produced music videos to accompany the songs he wrote in the 70s, about 5-8 years ago.
He doesn't look the part. His videos are comically bad. But his songwriting and singing ability is both haunting and beautiful. For my money, these songs deserved a wider audience and formal recognition. Perhaps you'll disagree. Even if you don't like the guys music, you could still enjoy the schadenfreude that is his videos.
