Futurebirds - Can't wait to see them on Wednesday

Futurebirds Live Music Video "Megachills"

Agalloch - It doesn't matter what genre, Portland pumps out the best shit!

agalloch - falling snow

Damn, I am jealous, the furturebirds, I do not believe, have ventured to the northeast.

^My first "listen" to Futurebirds, very reminiscent of Beach Boys and Mammas/Papas.  I mean that in a good way. ;)

Interesting.  I guess maybe that song could invite those comparisons.  I posted that one because it had highlighted reverb.  I would say they are more southern/country rock with 4 different vocalists who may sing lead on any given song and are multi-instrumentalists as well.

Damn, I am jealous, the furturebirds, I do not believe, have ventured to the northeast.

I am wondering if you fans of futurebirds have heard of the Moondoggies. I find them to be very similar in stytle. Moondoggies have a more classic topanga canyon southern swamp-boogie vibe. They have a new album out Tidelands that I have not heard but their 2008 release "don't be a stranger" was one of my favorites that year.

They are from the northwest as, I believe Seattle, well here's a taste:

The Moondoggies - Bogachiel Rain Blues (Live at the Mural)

The Moondoggies - Changing (Live at the Mural)

I don't remember there being a thread about them but they've been discussed here on this forum a few times.  I have Don't be a Stranger and the EP and while I like them, it never got much further than that.  I know aLady has seen them a time or two.  I prefer the EP to Don't be a Stranger but I haven't heard their new album yet.

I dig the Futurbirds for their, poppy, alt country vibe they got.  It all sounds familiar but at the same time isn't.  There's also just a real joy in their music that I'm drawn to.

I think the Moondoggies are next up on the Hear Ya live sessions according to the website.http://www.hearya.com/live-sessions/

Been listening to the new Josh T Pearson album, Last of the Country Gentlemen.  It's dark and intense and a hell of a record.  Out March 29 in the USA, I urge you all to buy it.

Any album with song titles such as Honeymoon is great: wish you were her and Sweetheart, I ain't your Christ should be required listening.  Plus, he has an awesome beard.
