Default Haim the band, anybody?

I was wondering if anyone here heard of the band Haim?
They made a cover of "Hold me" for the tribute album (but i think their cover only made it as a bonus track, right?). They also cover "Oh well" on their current tour.

Anyway is so Fleetwood Mac-y that i think you should give it a try. I really love their music and i think they will be big in a year or so.
Here are some of the best songs :

(sounds like Dreams to me)




And this one, though a bit more obscure, might be my favorite :

I actually think that it sounds too much like the original.

I discovered them last month so it's all new to me.
I didn't even know that they loved LB (though the love for FM in general was obvious)!
What's your favorite song?

I hope they will continue and get big.

Get on the AMA awards instead of the junk they had on show last Sunday night.

Yeah, the harmonies are so on point with FM. Most articles cite their sound as 70's FM mixed with 90's R&B. A lot of their influences growing up seem to be a big mix of the two..which is the uniqueness that I love so much. A lot of their stuff, IMO due to their LB fondness, is most like Mirage/Tango era. You should watch the clip below, it's like a mini behind the music!

On You Tube you can find 'Run' and 'Falling' which I love. I like Spirit Wind as well! 'Honey & I' and 'Don't Save Me' are so unbelievably Mac..

Let me know what you think

I was on Alana's (the youngest sister) tumblr the other day, and she added two photos of Stevie, it was quite great .
I've seen that documentary just yesterday! I'm really in an Haim mood lately so i watch everything i can find about them. I didn't know the song "Run" though, it's quite great also. My favorite these days is "Let me go". So great.
And i agree about "Honey & I' and 'Don't Save Me", but i also hear it in "Forever" a lot
