35. Boy & Bear - Moonfire
Discovered these gentlemen at SXSW this year as well, right up at the front of the stage. We were walking around Austin trying to see certain bands and getting turned away. Finally, out of frustration, we come to this bar on 6th and see that Bombay Bicycle Club is playing, so, with a strong desire to see something live on our first night there, we pay up and go in. I also recognized Ellie Goulding on the bill and had heard some buzz about Boy & Bear, but hadn't listened to them at all. They completely tore it up and I have devouring every single song and EP and video they have released since. They are an indie folk five piece out of Sydney, Australia, think Mumford & Sons, but with more harmonies. I am counting their EP so they would make the cut and the videos and MP3 below are from that EP. They just released their full length and I've only listened to it a few times, but it is excellent as well. In fact, it has four live tracks from that concert at SXSW. I can't wait until these guys do a proper US tour.
