UPBEAT THURSDAY - VIDEO OF THE DAY

ARTIST - THE RACONTEURS
SONG - OLD ENOUGH

This video is from a performance of The Raconteurs on "Later with Jools Holland". Later is one of my favorite British music shows. You may remember Jools (he was the keyboardist for Squeeze back in the day) who now has, and has had for several years now, a show called Later with Jools Holland. Basically, Jools stands in the middle of a room and points around him introducing bands one at a time who then perform live. He usually has about 5 bands a show and sometimes he performs with them.

I really like The Raconteurs. Two of the guys in the band are favs of mine. Jack White (of the White Stripes) and Brendan Benson. I can't say enough about Brendon's music. His solo CD's are brilliant.
