"Say hello to Theo Katzman, aka the guy I can&amp;#x27;t stop playing on repeat. It&amp;#x27;s official: I cannot stop playing Theo Katzman&amp;#x27;s &amp;quot;Brooklyn&amp;quot; over and over again. You know how we all have those go-to songs that make us instantly smile and walk with a bit of a bounce in our step? Well, ever since I heard Theo perform this song live last June, it&amp;#x27;s been a part of my insta-pep rotation of songs. The 25-year-old New York City native&amp;#x27;s got soul, funk and plays the drums guitar, bass and keyboard on his debut album, &amp;quot;Romance Without Finance&amp;quot; (available on iTunes). And as if all that musical talent&amp;#x27;s not impressive enough, he raised all of the money for the album on his own--all $9,500 of it! Before branching off to pursue his own album, Theo was a part of the Ann Arbor-based band, My Dear Disco, where he performed at the Austin indie-fest, South by Southwest, in 2009. Up next he&amp;#x27;ll be opening for Vanessa Carlton and Matisyahu--a pop singer and an Orthodox Jewish rapper, both of whom couldn&amp;#x27;t be more opposite. But it kinda makes sense. After all, most everyone will come to appreciate Theo&amp;#x27;s talent as soon as they take a listen. Tell me what you think: Are you a new fan? And what other new artists have been you listening to lately? Let me know.
