The Revivalists
NewMusicForOldFolks says …
Like you'd expect from a group called The Revivalists, this bands sound is has a classic feel to it. If you've been paying attention at all, you've certainly heard "Wish I Knew You." Almost two years after the release of The Revivalists' newest album, Man Amongst Mountains, the song was No. 1 on the alternative charts. But you should venture beyond the hit, which is undeniably catchy. In fact, I'd go back to the first album, VITAL SIGNS. We're not talking about a one-hit wonder here.

Bio (From the artist's webpage)
In rock ‘n’ roll, you’ve got to walk the well-trodden path of the genre’s forefathers one step at a time. Each gig under your belt makes for another fan, while every record serves as the next totem for your legacy. It’s a proverbial rite of passage, and there’s no skipping to the end. The Revivalists didn’t take any shortcuts. (more)
