Favorite Things

I love many things about my dearest bluegrass/revivalist/folk-ish music scene. One of them is how they do music videos. The whole scene typically doesn't release actual music videos (an exception is Old Crow's video for "Wagon Wheel") but instead tapes a live performance and releases that. I think it's genius, because the video then has the energy of a live take (another favorite thing).

Here are a few worth checking out: The Avett Brothers' "Nothing Short of Thankful", Old Crow Medicine Show "Tell It To Me", and The Felice Brothers' "Frankie's Gun". Unrelated, but am I the only one who finds the singer of The Felice Brothers particularly attractive? I think it's the voice. . .
