Deer Tick

I posted a cover by Deer Tick last week.  The band is led by 23 year old John McCauley, a Proidence, RI native.  The band received its name when John got a deer tick on his head while hiking in Bloomington, IN.  I have been listening to these guys a lot lately.  They have a ragged and rockin' sound that has similarities to Credence Clearwater Revival.

Brian Williams from MSNBC  is a big fan, too.  He actually has a great music blog.

Deer Tick is definitely worth checking out.  Their latest album is 'Born On Flag Day'.

Under the Covers #4

Since today is my birthday I thought I would try to find a cover that was about getting another year older. Deer Tick is band I have been listening to a lot and they do a great cover of Paul Simon's 'Still Crazy After All These Years'. I think this is appropriate since I am now forty-five, unemployed, blogging about music and spending time with my family. Life is good!
