These guys opened up for Josh Ritter the other night and were awesome. The drummer was probably one of the best, and definitely the most interesting that I've ever seen perform. His intensity and overall impressive talent doesn't really come across in the recordings, but I think every song has interesting drum work. In person, the drummer often plays more than one instrument at a time, and sings, too. At one point he was playing bass, hitting the cymbal with the headstock, and playing the bass drum with his foot. He also played the keyboard, harmonica, and melodica while drumming. At one point he stepped away from his drum kit to play a saw (which is also on one of the tracks). Overall, a sick display of talent. It's only two guys, and the guitarist/main vocalist writes the songs. They're all pretty catchy, and have a Vampire Weekend vibe about them; quick little guitar riffs and whatnot:
