The Fleetwood Mac Influence

[FuzzyPlum]

Well I wouldn't say there's any evidence of direct influence on his music but George Ezra cites Rumours as a masterpiece;

Besides your own, what albums would you pack away on your voyage?
There are some albums that I consider masterpieces, very few, but there are one or two, like Paul Simon’s Graceland or Rumours by Fleetwood Mac. I’d have to have a Tom Waits album in there somewhere.

I don't know whether he's established himself anywhere outside the UK yet. His voice is absolutely incredible- sounds more like a deep south blues man than a 21 year old Englishman.

He seems like such a cool, easy-going guy. He tweeted about his family going to see Fleetwood Mac, but he couldn't go because of work commitments.

These are the Dutch " Common Linnets", last years runner up at the Eurovision Songcontest.

Their most recent single, reminds me a lot of Fleetwood Mac:

I know what you mean. That mix between the guitar and bass sounds very similar to the Mac.
