you may have heard these guys on the stranger than fiction soundtrack. they're not exactly a big secret, but if you should be listening to them if you're not already. on a somewhat related note, i unintentionally drove through memphis during elvis week.

you might want to see this

this song is featured in a great scene in it might get loud, a documentary about jimmy page, jack white, and the edge (who seems a little out of place). it's worth seeing, especially if you are a fan of led zeppelin, U2, or anything jack white-related (the white stripes, the raconteurs, the dead weather, etc)

jamie lidell

i've always hated the term "blue eyed soul". jamie lidell has blue eyes and he's got soul but he is not blue eyed soul.
