Blue Crack Addict
They opened last night for The Stars and I thought they deserved their own thread.
I bought the CD and it's good but I prefer the live versions they did last night. If you have a chance to see them live I think you'll be impressed.
Here's a little bio from their webpage
The Elected, fronted by Blake (Rilo Kiley guitarist/co-songwriter), released its debut album, Me First, in 2004. Recorded sporadically at pal Elliott Smith's studio with Bright Eyes superman Mike Mogis and The Postal Service's Jimmy Tamborello, the album was filled with sparse, intimate gems - twinkling pop songs that recalled '60s-inspired West Coast pop, the blissful twang of Gram Parsons and the crumpled whispers of Neil Young.
