I heard a great song today during my morning commute that just wouldn't leave my brain. It sounded like The Shins', but when a simple Google search couldn't match "Shins" and the lyrics I had written down I was afraid the song might stay unidentified until, by chance, I'd heard it again.
But a last ditch Google search using the name of the singer (James Mercer) turned up a new band going by "Broken Bells" consisting of just Mercer and Brian Burton AKA Danger Mouse (Gray Album, Gnarles Barkley, Gorillaz). Seems like a formula for success if you ask me.
Here's the song that's making the radio rounds:
