  1. You should check out Keller Williams... it's not from 2008, but his live album "Stage" is pretty kick ass. One should never finish a year without some hippie (hippy..?) music.LIGHTNING BOLT!!!!

    I heartily recommend Alphabeat. And can hook you up if you're interested. Also loving the new Teddy Thompson.
