If it weren't for KEXP, I'd never get to see some of my favorite bands in such high quality.

Accidentally caught them on SNL last weekend and I was blown away. Brittany has what I call "hungry soul" that makes her such a standout artist and will keep people like me coming back for more. Thank you Alabama Shakes! Wishing you all every success and happiness.

[ElvisLivesUpstairs]

Have too say. I love their taste in guitars. Lovely!

[lovemuscle]

I can't wait to buy these guy's and Pickwick's new albums. I've been borderline obsessed with both bands for a couple of months now.

[TheSoxygirl]

They were amazing at SXSW in 2012 and I really feel like this weekend's SNL performance will propel them to the next level, much as it did for Adele in 2008.
