I've been listening to these bands a lot lately and both have a really unique take on "traditional" musical styles. The latest CD by the Wiyos is an impressive coming together of old and new with its blend of beat boxing and string band sounds together with some great vocal and musical chops.
Low Anthem are a very different musical style but as impressively eclectic in their arrangements - check out the video they did for NPR where they use the feedback generated between 2 mobile phones to provide a haunting coda to This Godamned House - really interesting stuff. Has anyone seen either of these bands live? I know The Wiyos have been on the Dylan, Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp tour.
