Fair to Midland
Fair to Midland - The local rock station (93x) has been giving a little airtime to an up and coming band (exceedingly rare, since they’re owned by the Clear Channel bastards). So, I finally got a chance to look this band up, and it seems like they’re still pretty low profile.
The band’s name is Fair to Midland, and the track getting radio airplay is “Dance of the Manatee.” The refrain consists of words I don’t understand, and yet it is still spine tingling great. This link allows you to listen to the track in its entirety, and decide whether you would like to own their album “inter.funda.stifle” for some pump-it-up power move style music.
Also, I usually find music videos really really detract from music, so starting this one up in your browser, and then doing other things would be my recommendation for a first listen. Check out that singing on the refrain, though.
