Has everyone heard the Waif's?

Just wanted to make sure that everyone interested in folk, altcountry, Americana, etc music had checked out the Aussie band the Waif's. I was turned onto them a few years ago by my downstairs neighbor who hailed from Oz. I bring them up because I just threw on their fairly new (2005) live album, A Brief History of the Waif's, and it's so unbeleivably good I can't imagine anyone not liking it. Admittedly I may be a bit biased since I love this band, but I urge you to check them out. Either the live album mentioned already or their studio album Up All Night. Hopefully you'll thank me!

Smp,
Thanks for joining in! It's too bad that it's so hard to get folks to participate in a music thread here. I mean if this thread was about "equipment brand x" there'd be at least a half dozen posts already. Sad but true.

They're apparently taking 7 months off from touring, according to their website both sisters, two thirds of the band, are taking maternity leave. They typically tour constantly though and quite a bit in the States so keep an eye out. And thanks to all for contributing!
