8 Up & Coming Indie Bands to Watch in 2009

3. Elevation
Absolutely not to be confused with the U2 cover band of the same name, Elevation is a five-piece rock band from Atlanta, Georgia with a way-grown-up Jimmy Eat World vibe and vocals to die for. You'll fall in love with Nathan Smith's voice - a rich, deep, satiny murmur which is forever falling off into a delicious whisper. Elevation just released their first album, Strangelove, with Minneapolis-based indie record label 50 Records. With its undulating piano, smooth electric guitar riffs, and gypsy cymbals, Wallflower is my favorite track on the album, but the heavier Facedown is a very close second.
