3 more plus a few that you might still want to check out.
Vampire Weekend - self titled
The internet darlings work it out just fine. Top ten cd. Yes even this early in the year. Think of them as a modern day Talking Heads.
Helio Sequence - Keep Your Eyes Ahead
Second cd for Sub Pop. Their earlier love affair with Electriconic tendencies are buried back a bit on this cd. You could almost call this their folk cd. That was a slight joke. Kinda.
Shelby Lynne- Just a Little Lovin'
A tribute cd to Dusty Springfield. Man what a voice. Man what a cd. Very good. Thus the gold star.
Also check out Beck's Odeley which got the Deluxe Edition treatment and the Blind Boys of Alabama have a new cd out too. I saw them open for Peter Gabriel a bit ago. Ok many years ago and they were fantastic. Now this cd is ok but this is a band you should check out even if you're not into gospel. Which I'm not really but love these guys.
More later
