Band of Horses

Just recently discovered this band, Band of Horses, and wondered why it took me so long as they appear to have been around for a while. They were on the Jools Holland show recently, which I often miss as I can't stand the oleaginous Jools who makes my flesh creep ever so slightly. But he does have some fine musicians on the show, and I really should try to suppress my dislike of him and watch it just to keep up.

Band of Horses are scalp tinglingly good. So good that I immediately found their website and ordered the LP from which the songs they played on TV came. I don't do that often [ever!], but listening to them again on the website I was even more convinced they were special. Hailing from South Carolina via Seattle, they produce a fine brand of indie rock with Country and Southern rock overtones all hinging on a very individual voice, singer Ben Bridwell's, which is plaintiff yet powerful [and anyone who reminds me of Neill Young is onto a winner] and makes the hair stand up. I may have to buy the first album as well, which by all accounts was a stunning debut.

I've been playing their album since it arrived. The track No One's Gonna Love You like I do [Casey Finn] is a superb pop song, pure and emotional. Is there a ghost is another fine track on a suberb album.

The band members are: Ben Bridwell [singer and song writer], Rob Hampton, Creighton Barrett, Ryan Monroe, Tyler Ramsey
and Bill Reynolds.
