Blessed Yes of Baton Rouge

Look for this group to make its name on a major label next yr. Heard their song, Trace on KLSU last night. Might not be music for most of you here, but if anyone likes cool pop, called Indie music, this group ROCKS!
Takes me back to my teen yrs in the late 60's early 70's. I only heard the song last night, and see I missed out on 2 local concerts they gave here in Baton Rouge. Brooke sings volcals/piano, increbible lovey voice. Adam on guitar I prefer much more to his influence, U@. This guy can play.
Great future ahead and I'm happy that a group like this will be successful considering all the c**P out there that is making money.
Blessed Yes lost out on the MTVU contest to guess who....a california band,,,,wouldn't you know it.
I heard the winners songs, they have nothing on Blessed Yes.
Ck out their web site and also their myspace.com site.
Yeah I know Trace has a tiny rough spot in the drums, but for a band less than 1 yr together, not bad at all.
My kinda of music.

Just the name would be enough to get my vote, but there's obviously much more. I liked Trace, and Good Graces too, but I can't decide if I want to take home the puppy until I can hear the lyrics better. I am guessing that I will like them, be able to endorse them and let them move me, but I can't tell for sure at the resolution of the audio stream. What I can tell is that the singer's voice is great for the untrained voices we hear so many of today, and she has NO annoying mannerisms I can detect on first listen. The guitar is good too, and yes there is that rough spot, the drummer should have stayed discreet a lot longer than the first couple of bars IMHO.

Sorry they didn't win the MTV contest but that doesn't say anything about the quality of the music! If I want to know more I guess I'll have to buy the album. Thanks for the reference Bartokfan...
