The Civil Wars

 
I'm so glad I have friends who tell me about good music so I don't have to find it myself. This duo is called The Civil Wars, and they're all kinds of southern-inspired, folky, perfect harmonizing, haunting melody goodness. I saw them in concert two nights ago here in New York and was completely blown away by their beautifully written songs and their vocal chemistry. She has quirky, adorable style, and in a certain light, he looks like Johnny Depp. I'm smitten.

    He really does remind me of Johnny Depp. And those harmonies are fantastic! This song will be on repeat for me all day.

    I love this music clip. Garden & Gun magazine did a feature on new bluegrass music. Don't know if you read the magazine, but you can check out their website.

    Loved The Civil Wars - it's great to be introduced to new music. Kind of reminded me of the Irish movie "Once" - if you haven't seen it, you should!
