The Civil Wars
I first heard The Civil Wars last Thursday when they appeared on Jay Leno (which was a complete fluke, as I never watch TV). I was completely blown away by their voices and natural chemistry. They both had wedding rings on so, of course, I did the girly romantic bit and assumed that they were married. Well, they are married, just not to each other. Which is probably good once you delve into the subject matter of their lyrics.
So basically, I’m obsessed. Which I’m okay with.
You can find out more about them here, where you can also download a free live album, and their latest single, Barton Hollow, which is featured in the video above. After all that free deliciousness, you should go download their EP. Totally. Worth. It.
Oh, and their debut album, Barton Hollow, is released on February 1, 2011. Mark your calendars, kiddos.
