Mana's Musings

I found this band browsing on iTunes. Their music sounds vaguely familiar, even though I don’t think I’ve heard them on local radio.

They’re called Carbon Leaf, a five-guy band out of Virgina, USA who have been together since 1992. They’re described as “Celtic-bluegrass rock,” and despite being an amalgamation of three distinct genres they somehow make it work. It’s melodic, catchy, and reminds me of other nineties bands I loved (Sister Hazel comes to mind).

Tidbit: the first video below features a pre-fame Katy Perry. Small world.
