Why he might be annoying:

    He has an inch-long scar on his forehead from walking into a wall while hungover in college.
    He encourages fans to use the made-up word ‘petan.’
    The Financial Times wrote that his music ‘approximates rock [but] without any hint of danger or unpredictability.’

Why he might not be annoying:

    He worked two jobs, at a candy factory and a pub, to put himself through BIMM (the British and Irish Modern Music Institute in Bristol).
    He said, ‘I don’t get why people take themselves seriously.’
    His influences include Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, and Leadbelly.
    James Corden said about his music, ‘I don’t think anyone hears it and says ‘I don’t care for this.’ The difference is whether you like it or love it.’
