I don't do bandwagons, but I'll give it a try.
He has to meet one of two criteria.
1. Be poignant and soulful
or,
2. Original and interesting.

I don't think he IS particulary original but he is definitely poignant, soulful and for me: Truthful. Truthful to the music he wants to make. His voice is also ridiculously brilliant too! 'Blindsided' is absolutely amazing. It is amazingly obvious to us all when we open our ears how beautiful one guy and an acoustic guitar can be.
