The Dodos. Fools

The Dodos are another of my favorite newish bands. They got together in 2006 under the name Dodobird but when Logan Kroeber a fellow west coast artist joined the band they became the Dodos. With a mixture of nice finger picking and West african ewe drumming there sound is pretty unique. The Dodos released their debut album, Beware of the Maniacs, that same year independently, followed by Visiter in 2008. Go and buy it, it's only deadly.
