Sufjian Stevens is an American singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. His debut album, A Sun Came, was released through Asthmatic Kitty, a label Sufjian and his step-father started together. Though his music is mostly known for being acoustic, emotional, and somewhat sad, Sufjian has actually released albums of many varying styles. From electronica to lo-fi folk and even a Christmas album.
More recently, he was nominated for an Oscar for his musical contribution to coming of age film "Call Me by Your Name' with his song 'Mystery of Love'.
