You know that commercial for Target that aired during the holiday season with the huge advent calendar? I was WONDERING what the song playing during that commercial was, because it’s awfully catchy, and it turns out it’s this guy, Jim Noir. His music is described as “psychadelic pop electronica” (whatever that means) - it basically sounds like a relaxing electronic blend of the Beach Boys or the Beta Band.

The 411: he’s British, has one album out (Tower of Love), is known for his eccentric dress, and he plays all the instruments on his work. For live shows however, he uses a band. Check him out on his myspace.
