Dry The River – New Ceremony

It’s kind of like Roy Orbison writing folk rock in 2011. That’s the impression Dry The River’s new single New Ceremony gives me, except minus the part about Roy Orbison. It doesn’t look like the folk rock phenomenon is going to blow over anytime soon so in case you’re still repping Jack Johnson, this is an ‘all aboard’ before the train leaves. The rising and the falling, the quavering vocals, they’re a little bit Orbinsonesque right?

Every day I expect to wake and find that this band have broken into the global consciousness but every day I’m wrong. Do you know how that feels? To wake up wrong everyday? Yeah, you do.

    I. Love. Dry. The. River. Amazing. I can’t get enough of their music. Their album “Shallow Bed” comes out in the US 4/17. Here’s an AWESOME interactive video to keep us entertained until it comes out… http://bit.ly/ypD2lD
