I went to see The Joy Formidable at The Troubadour last week and was pleasantly surprised by the opening band J. Thoven. They're a bunch of young guys from the OC and while I'm not sure I hear a single (Regardless of how the music industry has changed, "the single" is still a make-or-break fact of life for most bands), it's quality music and a nice EP that you can download for yourself at their website. The third song "Wake Up Children" is my favorite song on the collection.
