OT You should buy this album

Let's get this out of the way: this is a shill post.

Still here? Cool.

You should consider giving to this kickstarter campaign.

It's for the Portland band Ezra Bell. They are a indie folk band. They are trying to raise enough money to self produce a full album. Your contribution is a pre-order for their album. They are really good.

No, I'm not a member and I don't know any of them. I just really like their music and would kill for a full album. Six days left, a thousand dollars to go.

Here are two of my favorite songs of theirs:




Also, they did a cover for It's a Wonderful World that was featured in a United Healthcare commercial that was apparently played during the Super Bowl.



thanks!

 

I'm not nearly cool enough to listen to Indie Folk music.

 

just find an air conditioned indie bar....it's 105 here right now

 

Everyone is cool enough to buy an album of a band you've never heard of because I asked you to

 

This, yes. The subject of the thread, no. The unknown rap album posted later, no.

 

I like it, but you've got to like the singer, and (like, say, The Decemberists, ) it's easy to imagine that way of singing really pissing people off.

 

No thank you, I would rather not be a typical Portland hipster

 

sorry here is something more your speed

 

I have to give you credit, although, I was happy when the original folkies died out and evolved, even geniuses Bob Dylan. So I say let this style of music rest in peace.

 

I prefer hip hop

 

Oh of course, say no more.

 

gross

 

I listen to alot of newer folk stuff, amongst everything else. The "indie" part had me aprehensive, but they arent bad. I liked the first song you posted. I gotta say that united healthcare oldies doo wop hipster cover was not something i could ever jam to under any circumstances though.
