Bon Iver: Neo Soul

The latest artist that I have "discovered" is Bon Iver....pronounced "Bone-Ee-Vair" Considered tobe in the "Neo Soul" category, his music has amazing harmonies, sound and gives a feeling of inner peace and happiness. The first song I heard of his was "Skinny Love" (courtesy of Slacker Radio) His music has many layers and sounds nothing like anything I've heard before. If Cold Play and Ray Lamontagne were to merge into one, Bon Iver might be their "Soul Child".....pun intended.

Random Fact: From Eau Claire, WI
Tracks I suggest: (In no particular order)
  1. Skinny Love Download
  2. Lump Sum
  3. For Emma
  4. Re:Stacks
  5. Team
  6. Flume
  7. Blood Bank
  8. Blindsided
