Sounds like: The Antlers, Beach House, Regina Spektor, Animal Collective

Volunteer Pioneer - Fear of Cholera
Sounds like: Fiery Furnances, The Walkmen
By Jen Verzosa on Aug 25, 2010 | Stabbings, diarrhea, and zombies. These are the makings of a lyrically bizarre yet beautifully melodic 22-minute EP by Volunteer Pioneer. By way of the Golden Gate Bridge, Volunteer Pioneer is a folk-pop trio made up of Kyle Williams (guitar/vocals),... read more →

Sounds like: Bon Iver, Deer Tick, Bowerbirds, Bob Dylan
By camden andrews on Mar 31, 2010 | Folk music has changed a lot since it began to emerge in the mainstream during the fifties and sixties.  But Sweden's Kristian Mat, aka The Tallest Man On Earth, takes it back to its earthy roots, performing by himself with just an acoustic guitar or... read more →
