LISTENING AND LOVING: BAND OF HORSES



You know how you have those bands/artist that when they have a new album coming out, you buy it no matter what. You don't even need to listen to it because they are one of "your" bands.
Well, Band of Horses is one of mine. As a long time fan, I always know, whatever they put out, I'm loving. And their latest album is no exception.

This is the music that southern summers and road trips were made for. Hollow sounds, sleepy and soft melodies and a hint of southern twang. All in all, it's my perfect music.

Not to mention, Chris and I have seen them live a few years ago, and they totally produce. A sign of a true band or artist, and beards and lots of plaid don't harm the cause either. They also did a cover of Them Two's "Am I a Good man" that's pretty mind-bottling (please say you know this movie reference and know that I know it's mind-boggling), especially if you love the blues and motown. Check it out here.

Happy Friday!

  1. I don't know this band (yet) but can tell instantly by the cover art that I love them. Also, you had me at mind-bottling.

  3. I work for the public radio station down here, but we play music all day. It's a great collection of folk-rock, indie, alt-country...etc. Anyways, we play them all the time! Aren't they great?!

    (You should see if you have a public music station near you!)

    We have a really good college radio station here that plays a lot of stuff 88.1 WKNC, mostly indie and local. I think they may be online too.
