In My Ear
by RDW Staff
Appleseed Collective
They just released their first true full-length debut album, Baby to Beast, earlier this year, but this five-piece from Ann Arbor has been working on their sound for quite some time. Purveyors of what they call American jazz folk, their sound is something of a bluegrassy, turn-of-the-century type throw-back. Not exactly the kind of stuff you're hearing on the radio, which is only half of what makes us think they're pretty darn cool. But the fact that along with a mandolin, violin and banjo, they also include a washboard in their incredibly dynamic, filled-out sound ... well, it doesn't get much better than that. Amazing musicians usually listen to even better music, so we asked them what's currently in rotation on their iTunes and this is what they gave us.
