Cementing his reputation I am actually making up right now that he is never not great.<\/p>\n<p>Turn-out was surprisingly huge and increasingly appreciative for Broderick&#8217;s gentle repetitive looping (always with purpose, and not as gimmick), mixing violin\/piano\/electronics\/mini guitar\/the saw\/various gadgets n switches, alongside self-harmonies. These little innovative and improv elements set him apart from the more excitement-free (vocal) contemporaries Bon Iver, Jose Gonsales, you know the sort. Whilst the occasional looped mistake and missed cue add to his charm.<\/p>\n<p>In Summary: The Internet informs me he is 22 years old.
