Midnight Musing: The Civil Wars

The Civil Wars is folk/americana duo consisting of John Paul White and Joy Williams.  Joy's voice slightly reminds me of Alison Krauss.  They met a couple of years ago and they recorded their second show at Eddie's Attic and gave it away as a free digital album.  They met with immediate success as their music was played on the radio and people couldn't get enough of it.  Their first full length album, Barton Hollow was released at the beginning of this month.

After I downloaded their album from itunes I couldn't get enough of their rich harmonies and folksy melodies.  They are quite a bit different from the tunes I usually listen to but they are incredible singer/songwriters with a beautiful sound.

This song is their title track from an EP they put out and is also on their full-length album.






Love & Peace.
