"don't forget to turn the light off when you're leaving home, son"

So I haven't posted in a while but I want to let everyone know about this new band that I just discovered a few days ago while surfing the 'blogosphere.' This band called Brazos came out with an album last year entitled Phosphorescent Blues. These guys are good. Really good. It's been a while since I have been this excited about a new band (the last time probably being the Local Natives). Anyways, I went to both School Kids and Wuxtry downtown in hopes of finding this album but sadly neither of them had it. So I was then forced to search for as many songs of theirs that I could find online, mainly via other music blogs. In my pursuit of more Brazos I have found a few gems off Phosphorescent Blues that are pretty darn good. Here is one particular song that I loved off that album called "Kid."

The lead singer's voice reminds me of Nathan Willett's voice at times (he's the lead singer of the Cold War Kids if anyone is scratching their head right now). I have been trying to find out when these guys would be coming anywhere near Georgia, but I just found out they already played a show in Atlanta last November so the likelihood of seeing them anytime soon is pretty slim. Well, I encourage anyone who is looking to get into a new band to give Brazos a shot because they are beastly.

Here is a bonus video of the lead singer singing another song from Phosphorescent Blues entitled "Mary Jo."
