Vexed and Glorious

Blue Merle

I have to thank my friend Kyle for this one. Blue Merle is a new band from Nashville that pulls sounds from Counting Crows, Coldplay and even Nickel Creek (so much so that you might have deja vu listening to some of the tracks). They're certainly not unoriginal though. With all of these influences, they manage to come up with a sound of their own. Check out their official site for some tracks and other info. They'll be opening for the Dave Matthews Band on a couple dates this summer and are also touring this month around the country. Buy the cd.
