Matt Bauer, Judith and Holofernes
two bands that I personally can't get enough of. They both have AMAZING recordings and their live shows... well... it's really something you might want to see.
Recommended with !!!!!!!!!! exclamation marks.

"Spare yet vivid, the songs of Nandina pair Matt
Bauer's rich vocal with drifting antique banjo lines
from another time.A Kentucky transplant,Bauer's now a Bay
Area dweller who ties Southern musical traditions to those of contemporary, local folk revivalists. Kindling the kind
of warm folk that fellow San Franciscan Jolie Holland
revitalizes, and meshing it with the darker explorations
of The Court & Spark or Virgil Shaw, Matt Bauer drifts
down his own inlet."

"Here's a bit of trivia I learned the hard way: Judith and
Holofernes make excellent hangover music. With their mellow, acoustic strumming, they provide the perfect, slightly repentant/slightly miserable mood music for any post-binge recovery. Recommended usage: your painkiller of choice, plenty of H2O, a good pillow and Dairymen & Festa Queens. However, in the likely event that you weren't stupid enough to drink two bottles of wine last
night, there are still plenty of reasons to appreciate the album. Judith and Holofernes create a style of music they like to call "fadocore" -- a combination of quieter indie rock and Portuguese folk."
Splendid
