This past past Wednesday I had the pleasure of seeing Carbon Leaf at Smith’s Olde Bar here in Atlanta. Great band to see live..they were grateful of the turnout (even with the weather turning to freezing rain). Some of my highlights included “Under the Wire” and the encore “The War Was in Color.” What’s even more impressive was the fact that the show started promptly on time (my history of going to see shows at small venues prepared me for a tardy performance and a later-than-planned evening).
In short- the band can play. When you have an accordion on stage that’s a recipe for a sure-thing in my book. From their calendar it looks like they’ll be in Austin tonight (Luke- go see them!). More about the band and discography here and here. And yes, they’re on iTunes.
