I've just recently discovered this band thanks to Jamie G on KRCL 90.9 (local community radio station), and I decided to pick up their album Civilian.

Any other fans out there? I can honestly say that this band, and record in particular, is some of the best new stuff I've heard in a while. I can't stop playing it. Their sound is pretty unique in my eyes, and I just love the atmosphere of their music. It's impressively put together by just two people, and Jenn Wasner has a fantastic voice that accompanies the music.

I'd suggest listening to this album, as it is quite good.

    For sure. It's better than the last time I heard it everytime I listen. I'd love to see this group live. From their website though it sounds like Jenn has been having some illnesses affecting her vocals and ability to sing though. Some cancellations, but it seems that they're pretty adament on making good on the cancelled shows.
