Phantogram - When I'm Small
Barthel and Carter were friends since junior high school, but Phantogram didn't officially form until 2007. That summer, Barthel returned home dissatisfied with pursuing a visual arts degree and Carter returned home after a brief stint in New York City with Grand Habit, an experimental band formed with his older brother, John.[2] The two friends reunited and then worked on finishing some beat ideas Carter made earlier. They then finally formed the band.

Bon Iver - Flume
Love it!
Bon Iver are a band that I listen to randomly when I am in the right mood, but when I do listen to them I find them fantastic.

Ray Lamontagne - Empty
Raymond Charles "Ray" LaMontagne (born June 18, 1974) is an American singer-songwriter. Reportedly, after hearing a Stephen Stills song, LaMontagne decided to quit his job at a shoe factory and pursue a career in music. He has since released three albums, Trouble, Till the Sun Turns Black and Gossip in the Grain. In the UK, Trouble was a top 5 hit, and the title track of the album was a top 25 hit. Till the Sun Turns Black was a top 40 hit in the U.S. A soft-spoken person who is known for his raspy voice, LaMontagne has won a number of awards for his music and has performed at several charity events.
This track is from the Till the Sun Turns Black album
I adore the violin on this track, it sits in the background perfectly.

Ha Ha Tonka - Close Every Valve To Your Bleeding Heart
Ha Ha Tonka self proclaimed foot stompin indie rockers hail from springfield, Missouri.
With clear influences from folk, country and a splash of indie make sure you check out last years album Novel Sounds from the Noveau South which is a little rockier than the debut album Buckle in the Bible Belt.

A good band and hauntingly good song from the Fleet Foxes recommended ages ago to me by Mr Cheeseman! I think this band are on the brink of making it big time but we won't hold that against them.

The Cedars
A UK based Alt-Americana quartet, with soaring vocals, infectious rhythms and blasts of slide guitar and banjo. Plying tales of lost love, revenge and rural homicide, The Cedars manage to straddle the divide between the dancehalls of the 20's and 30's and what's going on in the scene right now.
Seen these guys live around london a few times and they never fail to impress. After pretty sure they would be signed up soon and looks like I was right.
Little Copper Still is their debut album now available on itunes - here is their debut single The Colour
Full album listing and samples HERE

Doves - The man who sold everything
I am a massive Doves fan, they are just one of those bands I can listen to over and over again. So this isn't really a new song I stumbled upon but I thought I would share it with my all of 2 users lol.
This song is The man who sold everything and I love the haunting melodic style and fabulous vocal.
If you haven't heard the Doves before and you like this I suggest you buy all their albums, sit back and listen through beginning to end.
