Good new band... She is a talented singer. Looks pretty back-woods but she is a soulful singer.
Band names can be pretty interesting and Garbage and a song like Blood For Poppies is very evocative....
Send me interesting names you come across
"Hold On" - great
song....this girl can sing.
More slick, more beautiful
Norah Jones Happy Pills
http://youtu.be/ They don't sound good to me, good name a band and title for a song, included because they were on the same section as Alabama Shakes....
The story of the Alabama Shakes begins in a high school psychology
class in Athens, Alabama. Brittany Howard, who had started playing
guitar a few years earlier, approached Zac Cockrell and asked if he
wanted to try making music together. “I just knew that he played bass
and that he wore shirts with cool bands on them that nobody had heard
of,” says Howard.
Attempting to record their songs with the honest sonic qualities
they cherished, the Shakes bought a few microphones and a vintage Teac
mixing board and set up in Howard’s house—which didn’t work, since she
lived right next to some railroad tracks. They eventually found their
way to a Nashville studio in early 2011, where the songs they cut
included “You Ain’t Alone” and “I Found You.”
When they appeared at a Nashville record store, people started to
take notice of the group’s relentless, hard-charging live attack, and
Howard’s magnetic stage presence.
One especially ardent fan raved about
the band to his friends, which included Justin Gage, the founder of the
Aquarium Drunkard blog. Gage wrote to Howard, asking if he could post
one of the Shakes’ songs. She sent back the yearning, intense “You Ain’t
Alone,” which he put up in late July, calling it “a slice of the real.”
And, literally overnight, all hell broke loose.

Based in Los Angeles, Aquarium Drunkard
is an eclectic audio blog featuring daily music news, interviews,
features, reviews, mp3 samples and sessions. Originating in 2005, the
Drunkard bridges the gap between contemporary indie with vintage garage,
psych, folk, country, New Orleans funk, r&b, soul and everything
that falls in between.
Run by Justin Gage, the blog has since spun off Autumn Tone Records, the Aquarium Drunkard Presents series, Aquarium Drunkard Sessions and the weekly, two hour, Aquarium Drunkard Show Fridays on SIRIUS/XM satellite radio’s XMU (channel
26), and XM radio (channel 43). Noon-2pm EST. Gage is a working music
supervisor for film and music consultant. He authored the 2009
