Emily here again. I know this has nothing to do  with books, but I have learned that booklovers almost always love good music and I just had to share.

If you have not hear of the Fleet Foxes yet, shame on you! This small band out of Seattle hit it big last summer when they were given the chance to open for Wilco. In the short span of a year they have gone from being unheard of to performing on Saturday Night Live, which by the way was absolutely phenomenal! The band consists of five men, the four original members and a new guitarist. This band will surprise you with the array of instruments it is able to incorporate into its songs and the perfect accapella harmony in which the four original members sing in songs such as “Blue Ridge Mountain,” my personal favorite. The band has already released a studio album called Fleet Foxes, also known as Ragged Wood, and an EP named Sun Giant. There SNL video is on youtube.com and you can listen to them for free at grooveshark.com.
