Sufjan Stevens? Mark Kozelek? Great Lake Swimmers? What is this, an indie-rock convention? Or is it yet another arrival in the "kids music doesn't have to be stoopid" record bin? You guessed it -- these songs purport to shout out to the kid in all of us, as long as your inner (or genuine) kid likes fey, guitar-driven songs by guys who wear bowling sweaters and sing with rocks in their cheeks. But seriously, See You on the Moon is a genuinely beautiful release. Cast Raffi aside and give it a spin.
