Two great early releases for me in 2010, Mumford and Sons "Sigh No More" and Vampire Weekend "Contra" have been spending a fair bit of time on my play list this year. This led to the pursuit of further music from these artists, but atlas apart from Vampire Weekends self titled debut album, the cupboard is bare.
Therefore I have been looking for "similar" music. Now I know some will say that the two aren't that similar, well they are to me. Both are great listening anyway.
So this leads me to the below three CDs, all gems and with a similar feel to the above two. They are all different in their own ways, but all brilliant and I think if you like Mumford and Vampire, then you will like them as well.
The Cat Empire have several other CDs out, however this, their latest one is the best IMO.
Angus and Julia Stone have one other CD and two EPs that are equally as good as well.
