#8 Hem - Funnel Cloud

If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm a big fan of country, alt-country, and folk music. This year has also found me enjoying far more female vocals than in the past. Fortunately, there is Hem which happen to be a folk/country band with female vocals. As the saying goes, a match made in heaven. "Funnel Cloud" was my first exposure to Hem and one of my biggest surprises of the year as this album is just unbelievably pleasent. So have a listen to Hem's 2006 release, Funnel Cloud and become a fan as I did.
