The Oh Hellos

I initially came across the Oh Hellos several months ago, and I can't remember how I heard about them.  I think it was through some blog or other...possibly thesixtyone.com.  I listened to some of their stuff but wasn't enthralled, so I sort of forgot about them.  Then my brother Will told me to check them out a few days ago, so I downloaded their recent full-length album.  It is rapidly growing on me.  The group is a brother-sister duo from Texas.  The music is very folky...they have a strong country twang, but a lot of cool riffs reminiscent of Mumford & Sons.  The girl's voice sounds just like the girl in the Head & the Heart.  Here's a song pretty representative of their style.  This is another song that's a bit more Mumfordesque.  Check out their bandcamp site; it has all their stuff.
