Their music is somewhat hard to describe, but if you can imagine old-timey Appalachian 4 part harmonies meeting Coldplay, then deciding to add the kinds of instruments you used to play with in music class or you might pick up from some eccentric musician's garage sale, you'd be kind of close. Head over to Amazon and give them a listen, you'll not be disappointed.

Overall, a fan of Badly Drawn Boy, or for that matter, good melodic music, could hardly be displeased with the show. Four hours of interesting live music for the price of a pizza? You'd be a fool not to make that deal.
