Magic Man

This group is my most recent groundbreaking discovery.  They are hard to describe; I guess they could be considered psychedelic rock.  It's a bit poppy, but there is enough innovation in the music that I don't mind, and it's exceptionally catchy.  Check out this song, which is representative of their style.  The lead singer's voice has a retro air about it that I really like.  The percussion is excellent; not overwhelming, but pretty crisp and tight.  And on top of all the various electronic-sounding instruments they use, there is a layer of distortion that gives the music a really interesting sound.  Here's another good one.  Apparently the group only has one album "Real Life Color" (2010) and an EP out currently.  I think they could go far, though...they clearly have a lot of talent.
