After Brendan Benson overheard some demos being played by a painter working at his house, Georgia songwriter Young Hines now finds himself with a debut album Give Me My Change arriving April 10 via Benson's new imprint Readymade Records. Lead track "Rainy Day" has an eerie Beatle-ish ring to it, a vintage acoustic strum-fest feted with some of the most gorgeous harmonies you've heard in a while. The Lennon comparisons help define Hines' particular influences, but we're guessing there's a lot more than Brit Invasion nostalgia to be found on the forthcoming longplayer. We first heard Hines singing backup on Benson's new song "Keep Me" (listen here) a couple of years ago -- and we're looking forward to the brief series of Benson/Hines live dates kicking off at the end of April in Nashville.
