After receiving Grammy nods for his self titled debut album that showcased songs like Dust and Down Here In Hell (With You) and a tepid response for his sophmore album On the Jungle Floor even though it was critically acclaimed, having an album of amazing songs shelved by Blue Note, releasing a rarities and lost cuts collection (Use In Case Of Emergency), he’s now ready to support a brand new album called what were you hoping for?.   A downloadable sneak peek of what you can expect can be heard in the form of the album’s first 2 singles entitled The Savage, Sincere L Of P  (previously on the shelved Blue Note album Popular Machine, but remixed here) and also June at his website at http://www.vanhunt.com
