I've just bought my first GY!BE album and like Yndi Halda so that sounds likely to up my street.Currently listening to Become what you are by the Juliana Hatfield Three. A good ebay purchase for 99p + P&P from a charity. Recycling + helping a charity + great tunes = Win.
New Pornographers ~ Challengers
But what I have been listening to today are two local bands from the area of Ontario where I live - one called The Gertrudes, who should be massive - wonderful, joyful music somewhere between Sufjan Stevens and The Fleet Foxes - and The Abrams Brothers, who are just the most awsome fiddle-driven folk, and they are about 15 and 17. Crazy.
Will have to check out The Gertrudes as I like the other bands you mention.
One of the joys of living in Harlesden in the 70's was walking along the high road past a string of record shops pumping out reggae, dub, lovers rock...Everyhing was ire. Of course, I was too young to appreciate it then, yeah man.
