A lot of you have probably never heard of this band, but I just can't keep them to myself--they are SOO good.
They are an indie folk duo (John Paul White & Joy Williams)
They are absolutely Fan. Tas. Tic.
They have AMAZING harmonies.
I've been listening to them for quite a while now, and all of a sudden they just blew up--they're getting rave reviews by everyone.
You should download their album, Barton Hallow--it's only $7 on iTunes. It's worth the $7.
A few weeks ago, Paul & I, along with some friends went to see them here in Louisville. They are equally good live as they are on their CD--which is rare.
I just can't find the words to describe their amazingness. Really. Do you see me stumbling here? They make me stumble.
At the show--John Paul White came out to introduce the opener, and well, his fly was down. Oopsies. The Boo sent a tweet to them, letting him know:
@thecivilwars john, being a brother here.... Looked like your fly was down when introducing the opening act... Louisville!He was grateful. they loved it, and they dedicated a song to him:
Fantastic!
We even got a picture with them afterwards...Woohoo!
Doesn't he look like Johnny Depp?
Anyways, they are absolutely fantastic and I strongly encourage you to check them out.
Oof, fantastic. I am obsessed with them as well. I approve this as a totally acceptable break from the food posts!
