Take Kings of Concenience, and give them some funk. Somehow this group manages to keep things upbeat, dancey, cutting-edge-indie, and yet totally chill. Perhaps it's the clean sound of the guitars, the grooving keyboard, or (most likely) the mellowed...

The song 'Fireplace' caught my attention, and was quickly placed on my 'upbeat folk' playlist. The album itself is a collection of folk and classical tunes, with the occasional mixing of the two.
You'll find yourself listening to a modern day track ...

Total psychedelic rock and roll. I dig the old sound of these songs, and yet there is an unmistakable newness to it. This is the kind of music that gets me hopping in the morning. Give it a listen, and I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I love albums that I can't figure out on the first try. This one does just that.

"The band was noisy and quiet, liked sharp angles and soft shapes, played vintage instruments and brand new ones, liked enchanting rhymes and forbidden tales, loud drums and invisible sounds and most of all making music with everything they had until...

I know some of you instrumental junkies out there are going to love this album, because I know I do. It's rare that an instrumental band can thoroughly captivate my attention, but I honestly can't stop playing through this album. It's a perfect, upbe...

Disjointed, sharp, and in your face. When I first bumped into this band a couple months ago, I passed them over after only thirty seconds of listening. Maybe I'm more open minded now, because upon second encounter, I found myself *gasp* somehow likin...
