I am somewhat ashamed to admit I still stalk the hell out of them on-line
They still hate each other, and there will be no tour to support the album, so its likely the last recording they will put out, but who's kidding who, I'll buy it the second its out :-)
I finished my first independent sewing project, PJ pants for W. The fabric is adorable--"boy" owls. Yay for a non girly owl print I can force on my kid! Boys have such a small window for cute.
I read in the newspaper that my middle/high school is going to start doing mandatory drug testing on all students 7-12. My FB has blown up with old classmates saying it's sooooooo wrong, because they went through senior year high 95% of the time and look how awesome they are now.
Ranch + sriracha is my new favorite combo ever. For salads, burgers, wraps, etc. Someone find me a healthier alternative to the ranch part that will taste just as good and you will save my life!!!

I loved Nickel Creek, but I'll take the Punch Brothers anyday, and its the same front man!
Also, have either you or sameoldash checked out "The Lone Bellow?"
Chris Thile has his hand in a LOT of projects! I like Punch Brothers, too, but I've loved Nickel Creek for SO long and I miss them. Luckily I saw them at a festival right before they broke up.
Yes! I like The Lone Bellow as well. Pandora helped me discover them

Why do they hate each other?
They're musicians?
I don't think they have a whole lot in common. She's a Californian former Christian signer, and he's um, not. Its a shame. My friend Gary and I performed "Barton Hollow" at our music group's benefit this February, and it was so much fun, its a shame they can't keep it together.

I thought it just had something to do with the fact that she wanted to spend more time with her family. I didn't realize they hated each other. that makes me sad.

what HAPPENED?? why the sudden hate?
I don't know! Its annoying. Apparently they're "just grown up enough" to keep their spats out of the media. But I mean, they cancelled their European Tour in the effing middle of it. Like, they performed on a Tuesday, and Split on a Wednesday. Shit went sour.

Her husband is their manager, the baby was with them, I don't think it's that? But who knows.

Oh, I didn't know that. LOL I just read that somewhere when they first announced they were breaking up, but it could have just been speculation by the author of whatever I read. Stupid internet, always lying to me.

Effing Interwebz :-)
Also, have you tried the Wailin' Jennys?
Oh yes, I do like them a lot.
Pretty much anything with that folky/grassy/old school sound really makes me a happy lady.
They had recorded most of this while they were still speaking to each other.
Weirdly enough walterismydog? I cannot get into The Lumineers. Given the other bands I like, these folks should be my Jam.
OH! Have you checked out Sarah Jarosz?
For me, The Lumineers are hit or miss. Some days I like them, some days I don't. I don't think they are as great as all the fawning fans think they are.
I don't think I have heard Sarah Jarosz, at least not to my knowledge. A lot of times I don't remember the names of people.
Tell me you are familiar with Gillian Welch. She's my idol. I spent my entire middle and high school years falling asleep to her angelic voice.

YES.
I like "Ho Hey," and "Stubborn Love" is ok, but periodically, I will be listening to my Spotify radio, and will look up and say to myself, "WHAT IS THIS WHINING!!!" And it is the Lumineers. Every time.
I am familiar with Gillian Welch, but I don't know why? I will go looking for her stuff. I am also digging on Delta Spirit lately.

That seems to be the common opinion. I don't care so much, and it wouldn't have affected me because i was such a goody goody at that point, but it does bother me that the school is using its "Christian founding principles" as their reasoning. Please.
I haven't yet. I have to be super sneaky and pour it into an empty ranch bottle (aaaalmost there) before anyone knows what I'm doing or nobody will even TRY it in this house. SMH
alzi so many of the bands I like have female singers, at least part of the time! You have stumped me. Have you listened to Iron & Wine?
i have not - i'll check them out too!
Also! They're not really folky...I don't know where I would put them, genre-wise, but you should check out Alt-J. I just discovered them a few months ago and I loooove. My favorite song is probably Something Good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYqrm9OLvpQ
