Marisa Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I know a lot of you have heard of this phenomenal band from Selkirk and their latest album is dropping next month: The Winter Of Mixed Drinks. I highly recommend their first two albums as well. Their live show is pure energy and the heart wrenching lyrics are so much better when you can shout them out loud with the band. ;) So here's the plan: Get the Albums! Sing The Greys and The Midnight Organ Fight Don't forget the live album And watch some videos!

tauiwi Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I couldn't agree more. I love these guys. They came to Melbourne two weeks ago, put on amazing intimate gig which I reviewed here. They do not get enough attention. Bring on LP3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 Love the review! Thank you so much for sharing. I read about this gig earlier today on another blog. But I enjoy yours so much more. Scott is right! Mumford and Sons is tough to compete but hands down I'd take FR over them in a heartbeat. I have some pics from 2 past gigs I've been to. I'll try to post them later in the week. What's your fav track from FR? All right kids, show some more love. :) Be back later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiminy Cricket Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 The album is incredible, fyi. I don't mean to brag (I've had it for a few weeks now), but it really is something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Final Track Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Heard them on the radio, Swim Until You Can't See Land I think :thinking: Quite good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Love them so much :) On my list to see hopefully at Glasto, lets hope they don't clash with atoms for peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fietssleutel Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Ehm, are Atoms for Peace playing Glasto? :thinking: You should definitely see them if you can. Their live performance is really good (although some songs aren't like the studio versions at all, not that it's a bad thing) and the singer is funny. :D And an unrelated note: Besnard Laaaakes! :wacky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't, I'm trying to cut down my gig mileage due to the rising cost of fuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grace. Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I love the accents too, they're just a little weird in singing if you know what I mean. I just realised they'll be my first act of the festival :cheesy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
