And South Africa's Chris McGregor did "Mra" from his 1971 classic Chris McGregor's Brotherhood of Breath (Amazon). Next, South Africa's essential Ladysmith Black Mambazo teamed up with the female UK a cappella group The Mint Juleps for a cover of The Tokens "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", which was itself a cover of The Weavers "Wimoweh", which was itself a cover of the South African songwriter Soloman Linda (whose family only recently started getting royalties) song by the same name... but I digress.

First up North Carolina's The Rosebuds did "Shake Our Tree" from their new album Birds Make Good Neighbors (iTunes, Amazon, Other Music) which I think is more interesting than their 2003 album Make Out (iTunes, Amazon, Other Music), but not necessarily better. Next was Canada's up-and-coming, pop sensation-to-be Columbus with their song "Christian Girls" from their new EP called, appropriately enough, Debut EP (Scratch Records). Then San Francisco's art-rockers Deerhoof did "O'Malley, Former Underdog" from their brand spankin' new album (currently only in iTunes, but coming out on cd on the 11th) The Runners Four (iTunes) which is great, if you like that sort of thing.

Also check out the video to their song "Singing In the Rain". Next was Ireland's Hal who, from track to track, you can actually hear the sound of their hat-tipping to The Beach Boys or Harry Nilsson, but in this song, "Fools By Your Side", they sounds more like something else I can't pinpoint. The song is from their at-least-average self-titled debut album (iTunes, Amazon, Other Music).
