The Lumineers: Probably one of the best "new" bands around -- superior songwriting and "chemistry": 30 Minute Live SetWe need real track "sets" that try and capture the sound of the new "americana" bands such as the lumineers, mumford and sons and others.

Kevin, Love the Lumineers. You might find this interesting it's an interview with Kevin Augunas who mixed Ho Hey. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6HcdraGw5I

If you like this new Americana style, there are loads of similar bands on Noisetrade.com where you decide how much you want to pay for the music, from zero to whatever you decide.
I found out about the Lumineers on Noisetrade about a year ago. I think they 'blew up' about 3-6 months ago.
It's simple to find the bands that sound like this, as new acts that put their material up there do a 'sounds like' submission.
Simply search for either "Lumineers" or "Mumford" and you'll be treated to a bunch of junk, some okay and some real gems.
Another one that has been placing lots of content on Noisetrade, but with female lead vox is The Vespers. They release on Noisetrade, then after a few months where they've built their buzz, they pull their stuff down.
Josh Garrels is another favorite - he releases on Noisetrade and bandcamp, then after building buzz (sometimes for a very long time, he will pull his stuff off of there).
The Followers are another one that you will likely enjoy, if you like the Lumineers. More of a 60's rock/americana vibe - not unlike CSNY-era stuff. A member of indie rock darling Blitzen Trapper" is in the Followers.
Check Out "Green River Ordinance" as well on Noisetrade.
Noisetrade's integration with Facebook and Twitter is offering an entirely different way to market and build a fan base for these folks.

I bounced around and tried to find out where he talked about the lumineers -- but then I ended up just listening to his interview. I liked his concept of mixing and recording as you go! Why take 10 takes of vocals and then mix and match the "best parts", when you can just record one (or two) good takes! I really should watch more of those pensado videos.
