Mumford & Sons "I Will Wait"

This is my absolute most favorite song right now. Mumfords performance on SNL a few weeks ago was simply amazing. It's rare that a live performance comes off so good, but this is just pristine.

The Lumineers - "Big Parade"

I had the absolute pleasure of seeing The Lumineers with Old Crow Medicine Show when they came through Philadelphia several weeks ago. I first stumbled upon The Lumineers through Pandora and it was like something just clicked with me.  So I present to you "Big Parade" from The Lumineers. For me it speaks to all that is going on in America right now- hope, love, exploitation, crisis. If you like this, be sure to check out their album. If you REALLY like this- see them live. They are simply amazing.
