Apologies if I'm late to the party, but has anyone else on the board come across a UK BB-influenced band called Hawthorne ? Their album "In California" was brought to my attention recently, and I've just bought it on download from Amazon. The verdict after a first listen : great Wilson-style harmonies that made me smile, music that wears its heart firmly and proudly on its sleeve. A couple of YouTube links :
