Hamilton Leithauser. I'd never heard of him before this week, but he ended up in my Spotify Discover Weekly offerings, and I am really enjoying most of his stuff.
Great stuff. I really like Hamilton's work. I first got into him when he was with his band The Walkmen. Saw them a couple of times in Seattle a little over a decade ago. If you don't know The Walkmen, you probably at least recognize this song called We've Been Had:
*We CAN bomb the World to pieces, but we CAN'T bomb it into PEACE*...Michael Franti
*MUSIC IS the expression of EMOTION.....and that POLITICS IS merely the DECOY of PERCEPTION*
.....song_Music & Politics....Michael Franti
*The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite INSANE*....Nikola Tesla(a man who shaped our world of electricity with his futuristic inventions)

Right on - Thank you! I knew he was in a band and I thought I remembered the name .... and I searched for "The Walkman". I was wondering why in the fuck I wasn't coming up with any results!

I didn't know The Walkmen went on hiatus. I saw them opening for the Black Keys in London in 2010. Decent band. His solo stuff is very Walkmenesque. That's one song I like from their catalogue:

I just discovered a punk/rock/WithSoulfulRhythms band called "Pinkshift" and they were f'ing great! I will see them again and I will bring a million people to that show. They were opening for The Linda Linda's (teenage girl punk rockers who SLAY), and they were super good as were the Linda LInda's.

Here's a fav of mine from the mid 70's Police And Thieves.....Junior Marvin
A remake of the song was later done by The Clash.
Peace
