ALSO I LIKE TO ROCK: Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros & Eskimo Hunter

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
“The tribal psych-folk of Then and the dance-worthy pop of Now collide in the music of Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, a 10-strong (or more) collective fronted by Alex Ebert (Ima Robot). Horns, accordions, strings, tambourines, myriad other percussion and big harmonies add up to an infectious euphoria”.
---Buzzbands

Eskimo Hunter
Weaving layered melodies with rhythm and sounds, Eskimo Hunter crafts a unique brand of music by combining the stacked harmonies of the Beach Boys, the symphonic electronics of ELO, and the shoegazer fuzz of My Bloody Valentine and Spiritualized.
