•before you all lose your shit, these are just bands that I feel somewhat resemble their counterpart. It’s not exactly the same so don’t get all pissy in the comments people•

Adele has sent out one Tweet thus far in 2015, and while we all hope it would have been some sort of hint about a forthcoming album, instead it was a ringing endorsement for another balladeer—Tobias Jesso Jr.

— Adele (@OfficialAdele) January 21, 2015

Just five words from the British singer and Tobias Jesso Jr accrued over 130,000 video views in a mere week. Not bad for someone who was thrilled to amass 100 views for his first YouTube video in 2013.

For Jesso Jr, he’s just getting started. His debut album GOON will be released on March 16. You can catch him performing on Sixth & I’s Downstairs stage on March 24.

As we often like to remind ourselves (at least three times a day), Adele performed at Sixth & I in June of 2008. Now that Jesso Jr can add “Sixth & I” to his list of venues he has performed at, he shares one more thing in common with the GRAMMY Award-winning songstress.
