Scottish singer/songwriter Paolo Nutini 's 2006 debut album was comprised of songs all written before his 18th birthday. He stood out from his confessional songwriting peers because of his unusual depth, canny melodic sensibility, and taut --yet homemade production. His singles, "New Shoes," and "Jenny Don't Be Hasty," were wrapped in rock & roll classicism and bore the attitude of Dion's "Teenager in Love" and the romanticism of Jonathan Richman's "That Summer Feeling."
