Mumford and Sons, I just can't get enough of this band. I am absolutely thrilled that I really like a band that plays on the radio so often, as it is not usually the case.
 
I've posted two of these guys videos on this thread before and thought I would post this link also. It's not a video, but a link to a magazine that features The Dirty River Boys on the cover. All four of the members are multi instrumentalists and are known for their live shows. http://issuu.com/shweikimedia/docs/15586_dicksonproductions?mode=mobile Their cd has been in my truck for a couple of months and never gets old.
 
Getting back into Kaddisfly, a local Portland band I really loved before they split up a few years ago. They're getting back together this year and will release a new album. First heard of them at an Incubus concert in college.

Album: Set Sail the Prairie
Experimental / Progressive / Rock

Ave Verum Corpus by William Byrd performed by the Tallis Scholars.

Yes, I'm a nerd. And I have a BA in Music to prove it.

When I'm in that mood, I'm more of a...
...kind of guy.

Actually, yes - I'm pretty sure that's the Tallis Scholars. Though the recording I was listening to is different. At the end, when the tenors and mezzos sing the "Miserere" and it's echoed in the Bass, on your video the basses sing a dotted quarter eighth rhythm followed by two straight quarters. In the recording I have it's a pair of dotted rhythms.

Funny how something so subtle is noticeable to the trained ear. Anyway I love the sound of well tuned accapella voices. There really is nothing better than well done polyphony. It's the height of western music, IMO.
