Sons & Daughters

Sons and Daughters - Dance Me In (single version)
I first heard Sons and Daughters at SXSW two years ago when they played the same showcase as their friends Franz Ferdinand, who were on the brink of stardom at that point. That friendship probably helped Sons & Daughters out a whole lot, but they deserve any success they get. Their exceedingly rhythmic and tough take on folk/country rock is a very nice counterpoint to the bland pre-Nashville formalisms of most modern alt-country. "Dance Me In" is from their upcoming album The Repulsion Box, but the single version is a different recording, one produced by Edwyn Collins of Orange Juice.
