'Blackone' by Jive Grave

Jive Grave is the latest incarnation of Geo Wyeth, aka Novice Theory. I first came across Geo in October 2008 when he supported Justin Bond's show, 'Lustre', from which he got a place on 'Later... with Jools Holland'. I loved his album, 'At The End We Listen', and the follow-up EP, 'Ordinary Death' in 2009. Then he gathered some musicians around him and became Jive Grave. They've just issued their first record, an EP called 'Blackone' which is available from iTunes and Amazon but it's better to download it from Bandcamp since more money goes to the band that way - do the clicky thing here.

Here's one of the few videos I've found of Jive Grave playing a song called 'Daughter Song' - it's not on the new EP but I like it.
