Next Elvis #1: The Grand Finale

Info: The Grand Finale is a one-man band of ever-changing musical tastes. According to his MySpace page, Patrick Wright and his laptop head up the Wheeling, West Virginia-based solo project.

Sounds like: Death Cab for Cutie, Copeland.

Bio: From his PureVolume page: "Formerly of As Patient Stars Align, the Grand Finale is an offshoot of a continual project specializing in the adaptability of new and innovative music. Heavily influenced by Death Cab for Cutie, Copeland, Reggie and the Full Effect, The Get Up Kids, and the Notwist, trace elements of each artist can be recognized. The purpose of this project is to write, record, and produce music that is constantly evolving. 'I think you're on to something.' - Aaron Marsh, of Copeland."

Why it's going to be the next Elvis: I think Wright's tunes are catchy and personal. Let's hope that's enough.
