Smog


I recently discovered Bill Callahan, a.k.a. Smog, a really great singer-songwriter. He's got really basic melodies but his vocal delivery and the instrumentation is all really beautiful. You may have heard his song "Cold Blooded Old Times" on the High Fidelity soundtrack.

Also, Callahan is releasing a solo album April 14 (without the Smog moniker) titled "Sometimes I Wish I Were An Eagle." Get excited! Or actually, don't get excited. Callahan's music is all pretty melancholy and might bring you down. Get miserable!

For fans of: The Minus 5, The National, The Dismemberment Plan
