I have the Sons and Daughters album, and Seasick Steve,and I'm keen to get the Bob Mould and Erykah Badu stuff. The Presets are pretty good, given that they are totally not my thing (I wish 80's retro synth pop would just go away and die). I am tempted by Calexico and Herbalizer fromy our descriptions.
Shiawase no Elephant means "happiness' elephant", unless I've lost even more of my Japanese than I thought. I'll check out Mix Market; I saw some bands that sound similar busking at at Yoyogi-koen when I was in Tokyo a couple years ago and I thought they were all pretty good.
I saw Old Nick perform last Wednesday and he played a lot of DIG, LAZARUS--it sounds amazing live. (Last time he played a lot of stuff from LYRE/ABBATOIR, which is beautiful and clever and intricate, but DIG is fucking Rock and Roll.
