You need:

City and Colour's Bring Me Your Love.
That album is fantastic. <33


You also need to know Nous Non Plus. They're a faux-French band from NYC who...well, rock. In fact, their guitarist entered the World Air Guitar Championships several years ago. I'll wait while you stop laughing, because I really did just say the World Air Guitar Championships. Feel free to look it up. It's pretty epic. I think I'll enter someday...

Anyways:

Lawnmower Boy - Nous Non Plus
