A few things from America

In a world where the most popular albums tend to be so commercial it's a wonder that producing them doesn't devalue the worlds currency, it's nice to come across something that sounds different. And theses guys, Cage The Elephant, are certainly playing something different.



It's a kind of bluesy rock and that certain indie style from Britain (but before it got over used by people like The Kooks and Arctic Monkeys). They were even on Jools Holland and the singer was on Never Mind The Buzzcocks last week.

Also on the subject of Blues, Seasick Steve will be playing in Dublin on the 29th of October which should be a super awesome gig.



Former hobo, turned blues musician certainly knows how to rock. It's probably easier for you to check him out on Jools Holland, and you'll know what I'm talking about.

Today's photo of Cage The Elephant is from Rob Thomas. Who likes Brighton, and the sea side, and cycling. And that Seasick Steve on is from Rob Harris, who's picture on Flickr is of Disco Stu.
