Another great export from our brothers and sisters in Canada: The Strumbellas. The latest is expansive: Lumineers meets Polyphonic Spree or E. Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros type sound.

A departure, but I like it.

Cool Strumbellas - here's some more Canadian content, Walk Off The Earth You might remember them from their rendition of Somebody That I used To Know where they had something like 6 of them playing one guitar at the same time.

I know right? Check out this cover of Adele's Hello, the use of the zipper on the flies of the two guys on the ends as a rythym instrument is very creative.

Who knew that musical zippers require extensions to maintain pitch? Wink

Another of my recent favorite lyrics going back the the Strumbellas:

Cowboy hats and crooked teeth, with a six shootin' pistol just outta my reach.

I mean, c'mon! Lyrical gold!

I wonder if adjusting the length of the extension alters the pitch? Like different water levels in musical glasses. I also like the splash cymbal hanging from the ceiling. There's another one where they use pistols and knives as rythym instruments.

Cowboy hats and crooked teeth? Sounds like a family reunionSmile

Um, with the best will in the world, Kevin, after reading your post here, I don't think Beethoven's music has anything at all to worry about as far as being forgotten.  (And for heaven's sake, don't you dare suggest that his Ninth Symphony should be played with men's zipper flies!  Confused  Tongue)

I like music in all it's great forms. Don't make me get out my didgeridoo! Smile

This morning while shaving I listed to Enrico Caruso singing Ave Maria in 1913, on my CD player.  I'm not sure why, I was just in the mood.
