THAO & The Get Down Stay Down

So apparently this chick, Thao, has a knack for  beat-boxing and humming at the same time, in the likes of Rhazel. Besides this quirky gift, she also has a knack for putting out some great tunes. Her poppy blue grass rifts are both full of twang, with a splash of sultry hipness. Listen to her lyrics, they’re pretty funny and at times sad, but you wouldn’t expect that with her skillful strumming and ability to carry an upbeat melody. Currently touring with her band, The Get Down Stay Down (I love that name!), check them out at a venue near you.

Listen to this tune: Bag of Hammers
