We posted on The Acorn back in November, before they made a serious splash at SXSW. Seems everyone is talking about them now. And for good reason. Check out “Crooked Legs” from their sophomore album, Glory Hope Mountain, which features a soothing acoustic guitar riff that builds up into a mix of drums, horns, vocal harmonies, and what sounds like sticks hitting various objects. Good stuff.

Their video for their first single off the album, “The Flood Pt. 1″, will premier on MTV2 online today.
