introduce a band to oot via youtube and wikipedia
 

live at the rhythm hive - the make-up (the singer's page has a lot more details)

please follow along: youtube link, wikipedia link.

i don't know what percentage of oot is in the same boat, but i haven't really heard belle & sebastian, neutral milk hotel, sufjan stevens, etc. i lumped it all into the "music for bloggers" category. so as far as i'm concerned, just about any indie/hipster stuff is fair game. let's just not do metallica, billy joel, kelly clarkson, or anything else almost everyone has heard.

edit 1: rap is allowed, just don't start big fights about it.

edit 2: try to make it something we can easily buy (itunes, amazon, best buy) if we like it.

edit: i saw your note astro and i agree. this isnt a friend who's in a summer band. there are seven cds on amazon and this video was played on heavy rotation on MTV2.

sure, i just ask that any big arguments/discussions about it are taken outside. to me, the rap threads tend to have frequent, protracted, and uninteresting fights.

I'm sure a lot of people already know of him, but for those of you who don't, here is:

Artist: Nick Drake

Song: River Man

Just discovered his music fairly recently myself, really great stuff.
