I've been listening to Ray LaMontagne and Bob Schneider a lot recently, thanks mainly to Pandora (though I did get Lamontagne's first cd a couple of weeks ago - awesome stuff).
Other than those guys, my 2007 has been dominated musically by:
The Polyphonic Spree
Silversun Pickups
Doves
Jack's Mannequin
I'm intrigued by the few Feist songs I've heard - some are phenomenal, some I find a little off. I have a similar feeling about The Dresden Dolls
Omaha radio really, really, really blows so I just heard "Ghost of you lingers" from Spoon for the first time yesterday...wow. May have to look into them more. Other bands, that are completely overlooked in Omaha include - The Kooks, Band of Horses, The Shins, Muse, The Fratellis, Radiohead, Arctic Monkeys, LCD Soundsystem, and pretty much any other "it" band of the year. For a town that's home to Saddle Creek Records (Bright Eyes et al), you'd think they'd be better at this, but they're not...
