Famous Writer or Indie Band Artist: Samuel Beckett



This is a segment where we look at famous writers and decide whether they missed their calling as the lead singer for an indie band from Austin, TX.

Today's budding indie star:  Samuel Beckett


Any man with a shock of windswept hair with a skunk's tail streak is channeling his inner indie guitarist vibe straight out of Athens, GA. The peacoat? Seals the deal.

Sure, you see the face of a man incapable of showing any human emotion besides subtle disdain. But you don't get the facial equivalent of a cinnamon bun without smoking three packs-a-day while stressing about absurdist ideas that can be sung without harmony.

Open-mic nights in Cambridge, MA, love music you can't hum.
