Big, big, big fan of The Decemberists - intelligent, literate, sorta, kinda folk-punk (labels don’t matter it is quality music). But previously main man Colin Meloy had a “country” band called Tarkio. How they slipped under the radar is a complete mystery.
Get a copy of Omnibus and just fill your head with it.
Great find, don’t ask. I’m enjoying it now. 
I get to see them in concert next week. With a full orchestra.
I’m so excited, I could scream. 
Lola Granola, I saw them in concert last year. They were fan-freakin-tastic! Wear your dancing shoes!
Thanks for the lead,** don’t ask**.
Following up: I’m definitely loving this, moreso than the stuff I have from The Decemberists even. I think the standout tracks are Weight Of The World, Neapolitan Bridesmaid, and Better Half, but there are many more that are still catching my ear. Thanks again!
