I’ve been following these guys for quite some time now and I’m always amazed how each new album tops the last one. The band’s latest project is releasing songs as singles, posting each one to their website and selling them iTunes-style for 99 cents. But for a display of pure musical ability, it’s worth a few more bucks to see The Guns live. Bain Mattox, lead singer and songwriter, can mesmerize you with his accordion—no small feat in these cynical times—and then shift effortlessly to the mandolin minutes later. His talent is never ending. Just as impressive are the band’s fans, who all seem to know the words to every track. It’s the best kind of singalong. The band’s latest and greatest is Horns and Halos, which combines softly wailing guitars, soaring voices and heartfelt lyrics. Find more like it on the band’s Myspace.
