Wow...who are these guys?

 

Where have I been? :idunno:

 

 

On a side night, wondering if it's just me, but do you hear similarities between Jim James and Robin Pecknold from Fleet Foxes?

The Quiet Hollers - Mont Blanc

I hadn't ever put a whole lot of thought to that, but I can definitely hear it now that you mention it, yeah.

@Colonels_Wear_Blue...your post of Mavis Guitar reminded to give these guys notice...

 

From Covington, Ky

Ben Sollee - Embrace

 

Daniel Martin Moore - Anyway

 

Meeting as college students at UK, and now living in Covington, Ky this is Motherfolk...

 

Haven't seen John Michael Montgomery (or his brother from Montgomery-Gentry) listed. Or maybe I missed them. Think they were from Lancaster/Danville area.

Here's one from a different genre.

This was the song that made her semi-famous, but "St. Teresa" was the far superior song off that record.

"At Dawn" has always been my favorite MMJ tune, but there are many other great ones. The bongo intro on that song leading into James' opening wail is fantastic.

Anybody got any love for Adrian Belew, from Covington? I don't much care for King Crimson, but I'm down with The Bears and their subsequent offshoots (which didn't include Belew). He's got a mountain of credits as a session player also.

Good call. :thumb:

 

He hadn't yet occurred to me, but no doubt he has an incredible resume worth mentioning.
