Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros released their debut album Up From Below in July of this year. In August, Rolling Stone Magazine listed them as a band to keep an ear out for in 2009. Since then, they have been getting a lot of attention, for instance, with an appearance on Letterman in September. Up from below is certainly a strong debut and it deserves all the cred it’s been getting. The first single , 40 Day Dream, ia a glimpse of Californian sunshine that can turn even the gloomiest of autumn days around.

P.S. I haven’t had the pleasure yet, but it seems like a live show could be well worth the money. Check out these clips:
