Mavis Staples - Song For Everyone
Mavis Staples - Song For Everyone
Sounds like: Wilco, Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, Bettye LaVette
By Joshua Mellin on Oct 9, 2010 | The once-tortured mastermind behind Wilco teams up with gospel royalty to create one of the most surprisingly uplifting albums of the year. Two Chicago legends blend wonderfully on Mavis Staples' new Jeff Tweedy-produced album, You Are Not Alone.Foll... read more →

The Shins - New Slang (Iron Horse Cover)
The Shins - New Slang (Iron Horse Cover)
Sounds like: Broken Bells, Fleet Foxes, Band of Horses
By Jason Grishkoff on Oct 2, 2010 | In honor of the 10th anniversary of San Francisco's Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival, we figured we'd feature an artist who won't actually be playing at said festival. Why? Because 1) they have awesome bluegrass covers of indie artists and 2) we're... read more →

Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears - Big Booty Woman
Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears - Big Booty Woman
Sounds like: Otis Redding, James Brown, Howlin' Wolf
By Kelly Scott on Aug 23, 2010 | Part of the reason Amy Winehouse's Back to Black album annihilated the music scene at the end of the last decade was because behind her unbecoming, off-color glaze was unquestionably sterling production. The sweeping/rueful strings, crisp horn sectio... read more →

Delta Spirit - Bushwick Blues
Sounds like: Dr. Dog, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, The Band
By J Meagher on May 30, 2010 | I first saw these guys open for Dr. Dog in a teeny tiny club in northern Virginia a few years ago. I had heard their first single, "Trashcan" on All Songs Considered a few weeks before and decided that is was an opener worth seeing. Thank GOD I did ... read more →

Mumford & Sons - Little Lion Man
Mumford & Sons - Little Lion Man
Sounds like: The Lumineers, Of Monsters and Men, The Wedding Band
By Jason Grishkoff on May 22, 2010 | This track for me is a classic example of how much your opinion of music can change when you attach a personal memory to it. Its like it transforms into something fresh, something new and definitely something more personal. Mumford and Sons are a ban... read more →

South Memphis String Band - Wildwood Boys
South Memphis String Band - Wildwood Boys
Sounds like: North Mississippi All Stars, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Alvin Youngblood Hart
By Taylor Fife on Mar 13, 2010 | Music fans love to sit around and muse about what it would be like for long-dead artists to jam with current performers, or how current stars would fit in if they found a time machine and rocked out with musicians in the past. Members of the South Me... read more →

The Devil Makes Three - Stranger
The Devil Makes Three - Stranger
Sounds like: The Avett Brothers, Mississippi John Hurt
By el gringo rico on Feb 8, 2010 | Can indie music and bluegrass co-exist? Do "indie" music listeners denounce knee-slappin and banjo-pickin?

Mumford & Sons - Sigh No More
Mumford & Sons - Sigh No More
Sounds like: Fanfarlo, Noah and the Whales, Blitzen Trapper
By Jess Alatorre on Jan 21, 2010 | I'm a wee bit behind on this one, but all good things come to those who wait. Mumford and Sons sounds like Fanfarlo meeting Blitzen Trapper. Some songs really draw on folk-inspired rock, while other songs have an old-time country influenced twang. Th... read more →
