Nah, it's too late. If they're already popular, I can't claim to have known them before they were cool.

Joanna Newsom
Joanna Newsom Joanna Newsom (born January 18, 1982) started taking piano lessons at a very early age and played for a couple of years, but switched to the harp at seven. Her approach to the harp, from the percussive aspects of her playing to her chord changes, was also influenced by West African and Venezuelan harp music, which she began studying at a folk music camp she attended in her early teens. At the same time, she also listened to more vocal-based folk, punk, and jazz like Karen Dalton, Texas Gladden, Patti Smith, and Billie Holiday. By the time she reached high-school age, Newsom decided she wanted to become a composer, and while that became the focus of her studies, in her free time she began writing and recording instrumental songs. Eventually, Newsom’s passion for songwriting won out, and she began studying creative writing to work with words in the same way she was accustomed to working with music. Although Joanna Newsom’s Appalachian-meets-avant-garde take on folk music is her most celebrated work, her range is even more inclusive than her solo career suggests: the classically trained harpist adds a decidedly different, textural sound to Nervous Cop, the noise rock trio that also features Deerhoof’s Greg Saunier and Hella’s Zach Hill, and she also plays keyboards for The Pleased, another San Francisco-area band more akin to Blondie or Television than her other projects.

I hadn't heard of him before either, but many a red & white was left giddy with excitement after this YouTube video started doing the rounds. Incidentally, those same people now rate him as a flop because the yellow cards have started mounting up and he's always suspended. Go figure!

Grizzly Bear (next week) is the only one I have lined up for the moment but I'm hoping to catch Laura Marling in April. Apart from that my calendar is empty.

If the first album was a nine out of ten, the new one's probably more like a seven. It's more varied but there were a few tracks that I found myself skipping through. Still worth a go but not really up there with his other work.
