As long as we’re talking about lanky frontmen who sing like preachers, let me drop some English about my new favorite band, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes.
Pretty much all I need to tell you is that they’re a twelve-person band with a Jesus-Freaks-in-the-desert thing goin’ on, and you’ll understand how I fell so hard so fast.
I’d give them the Gentle Hippies tag, but they’re not entirely gentle.
On tour now, hitting SF on September 15 (The Independent, $10, what are you waiting for?) and October 18 (Treasure Island Music Festival).

And here’s “40 Day Dream” live in LA. If you don’t want to go see them now, then I just don’t know. Bitch, I swear.
