They're a little bit pop, reggae, rock, soul and ska. They are good...and are great live! :thumb_yello:

 

Here are some of their music videos:

 

"When The Night Feels My Song" [is one that they are (probably) most commonly associated with.]

 

"12:59 Lullaby"

"Shelter"

"St. Andrews"

Heh. Yeah, I got a little bored last night. There’s a wider variety of music there.

I don’t really like one particular genre. I’m in the opinion that some bands just sing them better than others. :original:

I really love his song "Come On! Feel the Illinoise!" It's probably the one I've listened to the most after LICM :wub2:.

 

As for my recommendation: Fleet Foxes!

I think they're really fantastic, and thank you Mika for introducing me to them! I thought their songs were a bit boring at first, but now I love 'em. My favorite of their songs is English House, but Tiger Mountain Peasant Song, He Doesn't Know Why, White Winter Hymnal, and of course Ragged Wood are also really good.
