I read somewhere that Beat the Devil is like a combination of Man Man, Billie Holiday and Tom Waits.  That’s pretty much right, in terms of identifying the style.

I hear they have a great live show.  I’m disappointed they don’t have any upcoming dates in NYC.  They seem to be playing just about everywhere else.

A while back I said I’d share what I found in the free music from SxSW ’07.  This is one, so was Bird and the Bee. I’ve been going through it for months now, and I’m still in the B’s, apparently!
