Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes

i saw them live at paramount studios last year, and at the grove in anaheim the year before (i think)....absolutely awesome live...but i will admit that they are kind of a pretentious group. but they only have that one album out, but i believe they're coming out with a new album later this year....both singers alexander and jade came out with solo albums, which werent all that great, imo

try checking out deer tick or m. ward? they kind of have a folksy sound to them...or even early against me! (pre 'as the eternal cowboy')

If you like their song "Home", then you'll probably like Little Talks by OF Monsters and Men.

I don't know about the whole album/band but try this:

Dead Man's Bones - My Body's a Zombie for You

Sounds pretty close to me. (and yes, that's Ryan Gosling)

Andrew Bird! Okay, perhaps quite the same sound.. but he's awesome.
